From 1837 to 1847, Peter kept a sporadic personal journal, setting down in a distinctive voice both his own activities and the events big and small of the frontier life he observed around him as he developed into a leader of the Metis opposition to the Hudson's Bay Company's trading practices. Based on the unpublished typescript and notes of the diarist's nephew, George Henry Gunn (1865 - 1945), the editors have added explanatory notes, appendices, and historical context to their publication of Peter's vivid diary account. \u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 454\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.92 x 10 x 8 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 24, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47506113429682,"sku":"9781773545943","price":41.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0770\/3891\/1666\/files\/Rd6X8JBCjz9781773545943.webp?v=1779546781","url":"https:\/\/box.dadyminds.org\/products\/peter-of-the-prairies-the-red-river-diaries-of-peter-garrioch-1837-1847-paperback","provider":"DADYMINDS BOX","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
