Charlie Kennedy lives in the Canadian arctic colony known as the Red River Settlement with Indians, Scotsmen, and French-Canadian settlers. His father, an old fur trader, hopes to convince his son to become a clerk by recounting the dangers of the trapper?s life, but the stories only inspire the boy more to explore the vast Canadian wilderness?. Robert Michael Ballantyne (1825-1894) was a Scottish author of juvenile fiction, who wrote more than a hundred books.
