About the Author
John McLean was a notable figure in the history of Canada, particularly known for his extensive service with the Hudson's Bay Company during the 19th century. He played a significant role in the exploration, trade, and settlement of the Hudson's Bay Territory, leaving behind a detailed memoir that provides valuable historical insight. McLean's career with the Hudson's Bay Company spanned twenty-five years, during which he worked in various capacities, including as a trader and explorer. His experiences brought him into frequent contact with Indigenous peoples of the region, and his memoir reflects his interactions and observations of their cultures, traditions, and way of life. Born in Scotland, McLean ventured to North America to pursue opportunities with the Hudson's Bay Company, driven by the allure of adventure and the prospects of economic gain through the fur trade. His writings not only document his personal experiences but also offer a window into the broader historical context of European exploration and colonial expansion in western Canada. McLean's contributions to the understanding of early Canadian history are significant, as his firsthand accounts provide valuable details about the challenges, successes, and complexities of life in the Hudson's Bay Territory during the 19th century. His memoir continues to be studied by historians and researchers interested in the fur trade era and the interactions between Indigenous peoples and European settlers in North America.
