The Wind and the Caribou: Hunting and Trapping in Northern Canada.

Macmillan Company of Canada, Toronto, 1953, first edition.. 234 pp, 8vo (8 3/4" H), hard cover in dust jacket. Fold-out map at rear. "It was while he was working in the burning sunshine of California that it came suddenly to (the author) that he had had enough of the heat and the everlasting dryness, and t hat he must get back at once to the lakes and forests, to the snows and frost, to the mountains and rivers of the north. And, dropping his tools there and then, he made off for Canada. This is the story of the years that followed, when together w i th Karl, whom he met in Edmonton, he hunted and trapped in the great empty areas beyond Lake Athabaska. Except for their occasional meetings with the few Indian inhabitants of this wilderness, it was a lonely life but never for a moment dull. Tr ap ping for fur - mink, fox, muskrat - and hunting for caribou, beaver and bear, kept them continuously busy; the immensely varied life of the wilds, the endless journeyings by canoe along the swift rivers and across the innumerable lakes, the pr obl ems of house-building and house-keeping, the changing splendours of the seasons, and the rigours of the arctic winter gave them no time for boredom. Erik Munsterhjelm has made of his daily expriences a book that has colour and excitement in ev ery para graph, and one that enthrals by its transparent honesty and simplicity." Minor foxing marks on endpapers, light browning on edges of text block with tiny foxing marks on fore-edge, light fading at top/bottom edges of spine, tiny bump at to p of rear hinge. Dust jacket has light to heavy browning - mainly on spine and flap-folds, tiny hole on front panel and on spine, several small edge chips and tears, light soiling and two small water stains on rear panel, small and tiny scuffs on edge s of s pine. Very Good/Good-.
