Synopsis:
When you cross an Oxford graduate with a young man seeking gold and adventure in the remote wilderness, the result is Nahanni Journals. In this fascinating account of Raymond Patterson, a Londoner who finds his destiny in the Nahanni and Flat Rivers region of the Northwest Territories, Richard C. Davis reveals to us an extraordinary life. Patterson's adventures are as swift and unpredictable as the river he canoes. Outdoor enthusiasts, historians, lovers of travel, and anyone interested in captivating stories will enjoy accompanying Patterson for the ride. Foreword by Justin Trudeau.
About the Author: Richard C. Davis lives in Calgary, Alberta, where he is Professor of English at the University of Calgary. He specialized in Canadian Literature for his PhD at the University of New Brunswick. When not reading accounts of early exploration and travel, Davis can be found hiking on the eastern slopes of the Canadian Rockies or cycling abroad.
