For this post we have a selection of texts ranging from the 1866 'The Sportsman and Naturalist of Canada' to the 1915 'Reminiscences of the Great North-West'.

These books are fascinating for history lovers who want a taste of how Canada's history and society was perceived at the time. Also makes for fun collecting, as you'll see these pop up every now and then...

• The Sportsman and Naturalist in Canada - Major W. Ross King [1866]
• Steam Navigation: Its Relation to the Commerce of Canada and the United States - James Croil [1898]
• War on the White Slave Trade: Is Your Daughter in Danger? - Ernest A. Bell
• Reminiscences of the Great North-West - Col. S.B. Steele [1915]

Take any of these for 300 btz!. Take all 4 for 1,000 btz! Open to tokens, stamps, other offers. Feel free to mix and match with my other book posts.
