Northwest Passage (International Collectors Library)

International Collectors Library. Hard Cover. Very Good/No Jacket. No dust jacket, gilt spine lettering & cover decoration, red ribbon marker, page ridges toned, text unmarked, binding tight. We have more books available by this author!. 734 pp. Map illustrated endpapers. "Northwest Passage is a historical novel by Kenneth Roberts, published in 1937. Told through the eyes of primary character Langdon Towne, much of this novel centers around the exploits and character of Robert Rogers, the leader of Rogers' Rangers, who were a colonial force fighting with the British during the French and Indian War. Structurally, Northwest Passage is divided into halves. The first half is a carefully-researched, day-by-day recreation of the raid by Rogers' Rangers on the Indian village at Saint-François-du-Lac, Quebec (or Saint Francis, to the Americans troops). The second half of the novel covers Rogers' later life in London, England and Fort Michilimackinac, Michigan. Roberts' decision to cover the novel's material in two distinct halves followed the actual trajectory of Rogers' life." - Wikipedia.
