The Canadian Rockies were once as wild and unknown as any range on Earth. Lawrence Burpee tells their story, the lure of the peaks, the young national parks, and the growing resort of Banff, with history and mountain scenery in equal measure. A stirring portrait of Canada's high country. Set your sights on the roof of the Dominion.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
