After-images of Rupert's Land from The Journals of Ernest Oberholtzer (1912) and P.G. Downes (1939); Index For nearly two centuries, the Company of Adventurers trading into Hudson's Bay exported from Rupert's Land hundreds of thousands of pelts, leaving in exchange a wealth of European trade goods. Yet opening the vast northwest had more far-reaching effects than an exchange of beaver and beads. Essays by a dozen scholars explore the cultural tapestry woven by explorers, artists, settlers, traders, missionaries, and map makers. Richard Ruggles traces the mapping of the territory from the mysterious gaps of the 1500s to the grids of the nineteenth century. John L.
