During the long winter evenings in our home camp the second winter we spent in theN orthern wilderness, we busied ourselves copying a journal which we kept the winter before, but with no idea of ever putting it before the public, nor the one we kept the second winter. But when we saw so many writing about the woods and giving such flowery descriptiohs of the good times they had had, we thought we would have our book published, and give it to the people a plain record of facts, without any change to make it into a romance. We hope and trust that at least the people who know us as hunters, trappers and guides, will take it as it is, without criticism.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
