0919866638 Near Fine
147 pages including black and white illustrations. This first-hand account of surviving and taking root in Manitoba's wilderness from 1887 to 1920 reveals Helgi as a man of heroic proportions. Physical strength and a keen intellegence enabled him to adapt to new ways, but his stubborn refusal to accept the givens of a situation set him apart. He battled low prices for fish, unfair government regulations and even the weather with ingenuity and persistence. Enlivened with anecdotes about Helgi's travels and the preoccupations of his era, the spare narrative reveals a man of deep feeling and loyalty in human relations and makes for fascinating reading. Book is unmarked, clean, tight and square. Very slight lean to spine. Several small tears and moderate wear to dust jacket. Very Good Hard Cover 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall
