9 gen 1690 anni - Henry Kelsey Travels West From York Factory

Descrizione:

A year earlier, Kelsey is part of an HBC party that travels north to build a post at the mouth of the Churchill River. In 1690, relying on his experience, he heads inland to search for new First Nations trading partners and uses the northern shore of Lake Winnipeg as his main base for travel. He was the first white man to reach the prairies and to learn about the Rocky Mountains from First Nations peoples. He recorded his travels in journals. Nearly thirty years later he becomes the Governor of Rupert’s Land, in charge of all HBC posts in North America.
