Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book takes readers back in time to the early 19th century to reveal the clandestine methods with which the North-West Company obstructed and ultimately destroyed a settlement on the Red River in British North America. The Earl of Selkirk, a philanthropist, sought to establish an agricultural colony in the region but was met with fierce opposition from the North-West Company, a powerful fur trading enterprise. The author meticulously documents the company's relentless campaign of threats, sabotage, and violence against the settlers, driven by their determination to maintain their dominance over the fur trade. The book reveals the lengths to which the company went to protect its interests, providing a sobering historical account of corporate greed and the devastating human cost of unchecked commercial ambition.
