Description

350 pages. Black and white reproductions of photos. "Travelling by horse and canoe, Dawson was a groundbreaker in the Geological Survey's opening up of the Canadian West. In 1895, he became its director. A tough life for anyone, it was an extraordinary achievement for Dawson, who was cripped by a childhood illness that stunted his growth but heightened his lively spirit." - from back board. No dust jacket as issued. Highlighting on a few pages, otherwise clean and bright with very light wear. A nice copy. Book
