Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Mackenzie of Canada: The Life and Adventures of Alexander Mackenzie, Discoverer' is a comprehensive biographical account of one of North America's most intrepid explorers. Written by Mark Sweeten Wade, this work chronicles the extraordinary journeys of Sir Alexander Mackenzie, the first Euro…pean to cross the North American continent north of Mexico to reach the Pacific Ocean. The narrative follows Mackenzie from his early years in Scotland to his pivotal role in the North West Company. It provides a detailed look at his two monumental expeditions: his 1789 journey down the river that now bears his name to the Arctic Ocean, and his grueling 1793 trek across the Rocky Mountains to the shores of the Pacific. Wade captures the sheer determination required to navigate uncharted territories, negotiate with Indigenous peoples, and survive the harsh Canadian wilderness. Beyond his physical feats, the book explores Mackenzie's vision for a transcontinental trade route and his impact on the geopolitical landscape of the era. This biography serves as both a thrilling adventure story and a vital historical record of the exploration that shaped the map of modern Canada. It is an essential read for those interested in the history of discovery, the fur trade, and the pioneering spirit of the eighteenth century.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
