The Autobiographical Story of the Opening of the Far North

There was a time not so very long ago when the Hudson’s Bay Company ruled the north. A time of silky furs, Indian skirmishes, canoes, “jawbone”, dog sleds, traps, and sourdoughs. Adventure came easy in this silent land of the far north. Henry John Moberly surely had plenty of it. Nearly 50 years he spent among the native and white trappers as a fur trader, trapper, hunter, and explorer. Moberly opened many of HBC’s most remote Trading Posts.

The struggles of the north, the unbearable cold, the humor of the frontiersmen, the dangers of the trail and river, and the peace and war times of the natives. This book contains a lifetime of adventure and insights of the true north.

Moberly’s When Fur was King is the autobiography of an exceptional man in an exceptional time in history. When hunters and trappers opened the north and blazed the trails for later exploration by prospectors and explorers.

Containing an introduction by William Bleasdell Cameron, (the author of Blood Red the Sun, the war trail of big bear, etc)

It was great hearing a Canadian perspective regarding settlers and Indians. There were quite a few mispronunciations by the AI voice that were a bit annoying. Did the publisher even listen to the final product? The first error is in the first sentence!!

AI voice could use some help

Storyline solid, overall good listen. Think A.I. needs a lot more refinement. Very distracive, would a been a so much better with emotions.

A.I. commentary weak, monotonous Tempo

I found this book while traveling in Canada. I was hoping to learn more about the Beaver wars. The reader did a fine job, but this book was a fantasy of a white man. The number of kills and physical effort described was not possible by any human and it described a clear lack of compassion, empathy, and care for creation and humanity. I ended up listening to the whole thing, even though my husband did not want to, because I wanted to see how brave in sensationalizing this tale the author would be. Glorified bullshit!
