$16.00 CAD

pp. 320. “A Discovery of Strangers is a story–based on true events–of love and innocence, murder, greed and passion set within the terrifying, fragile Arctic landscape. In 1820, John Franklin’s small group of British officers and Canadian voyageurs, on their first expedition to search for a route through the incomprehensible North, encounter the Yellowknife Indians — and Greenstockings, fifteen-year-old daughter of Keskarrah, elder of the Yellowknife, meets young Robert Hood, son of a Lancashire clergyman. Wordless, they devise a language of their own as their two worlds clash.”
