About This Item

This is a first edition of Caesars of the Wilderness, written in 1987 by the Canadian journalist Peter C Newman.


It is part two of his history of the Hudson's Bay Company; in this volume, we learn about the war for supremacy over the North American fur trade, and the territory ranging from San Francisco to the Beaufort Sea. The competition was between the Hudson's Bay's Fur Brigades, and their arch-rivals the Northwest Company, an incredible battle that remains the fiercest commercial feud in history.


Note: Also listed here, I have a mint condition copy of part 1, Company of Adventurers, signed by the author (see last photos). If you want both, please message me.


This is a beautiful book, elegantly designed with tons of photos, maps and drawings.
450 pages.

It has not been read, or even opened, until now.It is in mint condition.
