Description
This is the tale of Irish-born Henry Ross Halpin, who by the age of 16 started a protracted association with the fur industry and Canada’s local peoples, used to be three times employed by the Hudson’s Bay Company, and turned into an Indian agent (1885–1901). Halpin’s work took him from Fort Garry, Manitoba, to Fort York at the shores of the Hudson Bay, and around the Prairies to British Columbia.
