1894: The Deeper Story of Moose Factory’s Great Flood is an account of an ice jam-induced flood that occurred at the Hudson’s Bay Company (HBC) fur trading post on Moose Factory Island, which is situated along the James Bay coast in Canada's north. This story is also an account of the broader history of break-up, a season all of its own, within the delta of the Moose River. Through the phenomenon of break-up, the author also tells a deeper story of Moose Factory, its history and the region’s people. You will no longer think of water and ice in the same way after reading this book. Guaranteed.
