The Lost Patrol

If you like to read about the wilderness, survival or the epic story of the Mounties early days at Herschel Island this book is for you. Imagine making the trip to Fort McPherson by dog sled or having to possibly sacrifice one of your dogs so that you and the other dogs could survive. Dick North tells it like it really was. I could not put it down.

Terrible Tragedy in the North

This is an incredible tale of a Canadian Mountie patrol that disappeared in the northern wilderness under frightful freezing conditions. No one knew what really happened until the author -- many decades too late -- found the wrong turn the patrol took. You'll gain a new appreciation of the Canadian Mounties and all they stand for in North's The Lost Patrol.
