| Synopsis: |
In the middle of the Great Depression, French millionaire Charles Bedaux spent $250,000 on a trek through northern British Columbia. The Bedaux Expedition, which celebrates its 75th anniversary in 2009, is one of the most unusual events in the province's history. Bob White was there. A cowboy who took part in the expedition, he describes the hardships of the journey, the beauty of the untouched wilderness, and the few inhabitants of the area. Whether he is recalling a winter snowshoe and dogsled trip or an adventure-filled summer journey, White's memoirs take us to the campfire stories of people who were part of the vast wilderness of a different age. |
