Edited with a new Introduction and Notes by R.H. Cockburn.
A New Improved Edition of this northern classic, with many new illustrations from the Downes archives, most not previously published. "P. G. Downes has published his experiences in finding Nueltin Lake, far to the north of Reindeer Lake, which is far north of Flin Flon, is the best book of Canadian travel that has appeared for several years. Sleeping Island is a book that will delight those who enjoy the records of the early explorers."
