Description:
This is a stated first edition of Emperor of the North: Sir George Simpson and the Remarkable Story of the Hudson's Bay Company.
Canada, and North America, cannot be understood without discussing the influence of the Hudson's Bay Company, which once covered 1/12th of the world's land, and remains the world's oldest retailer. It played a huge role in the creation of Canada, and that would not have been possible without George Simpson, who was the HBC governor for 40 years. Simpson not only made the company profitable, he ensured British control of western and northern Canada by negotiating with Americans, First Nations and Russians.
This is a lovely book, full of maps, photos and drawings. Unclipped dust jacket.
It has not been read and is in pristine condition.
Note: The price for shipping this book outside of North America is for surface mail without tracking. For other options, please contact me.
