| Abstract | A private collector of Canadiana visited my office about 1967 and described a rare volume which he said he possessed. In Paris he had picked up a French book describing a journey with the Nor'West fur brigade taken by a Frenchman in 1811. It was my intention to verify this entry some time when in my informant's city by arranging to see the book. Finally, I made enquiries and learned that the collector had died unexpectedly and his collection had been dispersed. The discovery and verification of this book remains a challenge. |
