Formidable Heritage: Manitoba's North And the Cost of Development - Mochoruk, Jim

Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; Mochoruk shows how government and business have worked together to transform northern Manitoba from the exclusive fur-trading reserve of the Hudson's Bay Company into an industrial hinterland. Along the way, he also details the intricate daring of the many entrepreneurs who came to the north and the fate of some of the impractical schemes along the way. With impeccable research, this book reveals the full price and impact of short-sighted development for the land and people of the north.
