Book Description

Excerpt from The Emigrant and Sportsman in Canada: Some Experiences of an Old Country Settler, With Sketches of Canadian Life, Sporting Adventures, and Observations on the Forests and Fauna Portions of this work have appeared in the columns of the 'Field,' with the nom-de-plume of 'Cariboo.' By the courtesy of the publisher of that journal I am now permitted to republish my papers, together with fresh matter, in the present shape. It contains practical and, it is hoped, useful hints for emigrants and sportsmen, written by an emigraut and a sportsman. Good books of travel arc plentiful, and there is also a mass of published information specially written for emigrants of the working classes, but little or none for a class of emigrants for which Canada is a particularly suitable country; I allude to people of small fortune, whose means, though ample to enable them to live well in Canada, are insufficient to meet the demands of rising expenses at home. In the following pages I have endeavoured to put together information for the latter class. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
