In "Through the Mackenzie Basin," Charles Mair embarks on a formidable journey that intricately chronicles his experiences in the expansive Canadian North. This travel narrative, rich in vivid descriptions and detailed observations, provides readers with a window into the region's landscapes, Indigenous cultures, and burgeoning economic opportunities during the late 19th century.
