DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Long Trail My father had done much hunting with many and varied friends. I have often heard him say of some one whom I had thought an ideal hunting companion: He's a good fellow, but he was always fishing about in the pot for the best piece of meat, and if there was but one partridge shot, he would try to roast it for himself. If there was any delicacy he wanted more than his share. Things assume such dif ferent proportions in the wilds; after two months living on palm-tree t0ps and mon keys, a ten-cent can of condensed milk bought for three dollars from a rubber ex plorer far exceeds in value the greatest delicacy of the season to the ordinary citi zen who has a varied and sufficient menu at his command every day in the year.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Book of the Long Trail This, as you know, was not always so nations used to fight by teams, as schools do - a small picked army on this side against a small picked army on that. Even then they did a lot of damage and caused a lot of misery; but the case is a thousand times worse now. Now the whole population of each country goes to war, the whole world is involved, and the nations fight desperately because they fight for their existence - world-power or downfall - and they feel that they must hack their way through and stick at nothing to save themselves. Do you think that this kind of fighting can go on One such war has brought the world to the brink of ruin and starvation: what would another leave us? Can you imagine what would become of your school life if in a football match the whole of both schools played in.one big scrimmage, and a hundred boys were killed on each side and a hundred injured for life, and both sides always joined in burning down the buildings of the school on whose ground the game was played But that would be very much less cruel and absurd than modern war.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Long Trail: A Story of the Northwest Wilderness For this ship contained a million dollars in gold: these seedy passengers carried great bags of nuggets and bottles of shining dust which they had burned, at risk of their lives, out of the perpetually frozen ground, so far in the north that the winter had no sun and the summer midnight had no dusk. The world was instantly filled with the stories of these men and of their tons of bullion. There was a moment of arrested attention - then the listeners smiled and nodded knowingly to each other, and went about their daily affairs. But other ships similarly laden crept laggardly through the gates of Puget Sound, bringing other miners with bags and bottles, and then the world believed. Thereafter the journals of all Christendom had to do with the "Klondike" and "The Golden River." Men could not hear enough or read enough of the mysterious Northwest.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA Canadian icon on his longstanding love of the West and his life in "one of the last true cowboy countries on either side of the border." "I live on a ranch about six miles east of the town of Longview and the old Cowboy Trail in the foothills of the Rockies. On a perfect day, like today, I can't imagine being anywhere else in the world. Of course, I'm not going to say there aren't those other days when you think, 'What am I doing here?' It's beautiful country and it can be brutally tough as well." —Ian Tyson Ian Tyson's journey to the West began in the unlikely city of Victoria, BC, where he rode his dad's horses on the weekends and met cowboys in the pages of Will James's books, and eventually followed that cowboy dream to rodeo competition. Laid up after breaking a leg, he learned the guitar, and drifted east, becoming a key songwriter and performer in the folk revival movement. But the West always beckoned, and when his marriage to his partner and collaborator Sylvia broke up and the music scene threatened to grind him down, he retreated to a ranch and work with cutting horses. Soon, he'd bought a ranch in Alberta and found a new voice as the renowned Western Revival singer-songwriter and horseman he is today. This book is Ian's reflection on that journey...
