Excerpt from Canada's West and Farther West
Any impressions of Western Canada have been published by authors of note, but in the following pages the writer, in a humble way, has endeavored to recount how much can be seen, how much ground can be covered and how much information can be gathered, in a month's journey from Quebec to Victoria, via the inland lakes, and over the Canadian Pacific, Grand Trunk and Canadian Northern Railways, with side trips down the Okanagan Valley, Yoho Valley and Crow's Nest. To all the foregoing transportation companies and many old and new Western friends, the writer is indebted for many of the accompanying photographs and statistics, which are at all times gladly and willingly given to all visitors from the East, for there are no more hospitable people in the world to-day than the Canadian Westerners.
