The Athabasca Landing Route stretched from Fort Edmonton to Fort McMurray via Athabasca Landing. The HBC used the Athabasca Landing to Fort McMurray section from 1882 to 1920. It was a route with hazards as boats and freight were destroyed, and lives were lost. This book is sure to bring the reader appreciation of the adventurous rivermen, their boats, and the events that comprised this route.

Welcome to the Crowsnest Pass!

In a region shaped by industry and tragedy, the Crowsnest Pass survived and has created one of the most vibrant and beautiful watering holes in the Canadian Rockies. Surviving amazing hardships in the Crowsnest Pass was an accomplishment in itself. How did those early residents do it? To be honest, they had a little help from a few libations now and then.

L'extraordinaire chronique d un citoyen français, Brigadier-Général dans l armée canadienne. Brutinelest la biographie fascinante d un immigrant français en Alberta, Canada, relatée par des amis intimes de la famille, Dominique et Jacques Baylauq. Au début des années 1900, avant de s engager dans l Armée canadienne et de mettre sur pied la Brigade motorisée de mitrailleuses, une force tactique nouvelle de la guerre moderne, il apporta une contribution importante à la jeune province, travaillant comme éditeur de journal, arpenteur et bâtisseur de chemin de fer. Le livre contient des transcriptions d entrevues de la Canadian Broadcasting Corporation avec Brutinel à propos de son service durant la Première Guerre mondiale.

par Dominique et Jacques Baylaucq

Raymond Brutinel was born into an old family from Alet-les-Bains, in Southern France. At the age of 16 he abandoned his studies to travel around the world on some of the last sailing ships. After his military service in Tarbes in the South-West of France, he left with his wife and son and settled in Edmonton, Alberta, in 1905. He quickly prospered, pursuing numerous activities in journalism, prospecting and finance. His keen interest in military strategy, coupled with his passion for history, inspired him to create, in Canada, at the outset of the WWI, the first autonomous motorized machine gun unit.

In 1795, the Hudson's Bay Company established Edmonton House and the North West Company Fort Augustus a few kilometers downstream from the present-day city of Edmonton. Although both posts were moved several times, they operated side by side as the major administrative, trade, and provisioning centres on the North Saskatchewan River from 1795 to 1821, when the companies merged.

The post journals and district reports from Edmonton House for the period from 1806 to 1821 are reproduced verbatim in this volume.
