Description

Excerpt from The Young Voyageurs: Or the Boy Hunters in the North IN the Boy Hunters the Author endeavoured to illustrate the fauna of the temperate zone of the American Continent. In doing this, however, many animals, and particularly that interesting class known as the fur-bearing animals, could not be introduced Without bringing the mountain to Mahomet. To avoid this, the Boy Hunters - under the name of the Young Voyageurs - have' made a grand journey through the fur countries, Where, as will be seen, they have met With nearly all the wild creatures that inhabit that cold and desolate region. The Author begs leave here to repeat that he is not conscious of having taken any liberty, for the sake of effect, with the laws of Nature - with its fauna or its flora. Neither plant nor tree, bird nor mammal, has been pressed into service beyond the limits of its geographical range; although, in illustrating the habits or history of God's wild creatures, he has often selected only their more peculiar characteristics. If the Young Voyageurs receive only as much applause in their new character, as they did in that of the Boy Hunters, the Author will have no reason to complain of his boy public.
