Far Pastures

In Far Pastures, Raymond Patterson offers the rich spirit and vitality of the frontier; he lived, sweated and risked his life in the wildernesss. Homesteading in the Peace River country, ranching in the foothills, camping among the mountains, trapping up the Nahanni, Patterson's life in Canada was a far cry from his years in the mellow beauty of Oxford, and the formality of the Bank of England. This dashing adventurer became an expert outdoorsman and an outstanding writer.
