More about the book

Walter Moberly's journey from Ontario to British Columbia in 1858 was fueled by his ambition to discover a land route for the Northwest Passage, crucial for the transcontinental railway. His notable achievements include navigating the Monashee Mountains and the Selkirks during harsh conditions, ultimately clearing paths that connected the Pacific Coast to the Prairies. While the narrative highlights his exploration triumphs, it also candidly addresses his personal flaws, providing a nuanced portrait of a man whose aspirations often went unfulfilled.
