Summary "South from Hudson Bay: An Adventure and Mystery Story for Boys" by Ethel C. Brill is a fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows young Walter Rossel, who embarks on a challenging journey along with Swiss immigrants to establish a new life in the Selkirk Colony on the Red River. The narrative blends elements of adventure and mystery as the characters face the perils of the wilderness and the realities of life in an untamed land. At the start of the story, the scene is set aboard the ship "Lord Wellington", as Walter and other immigrants awaken to the realization that they are approaching their new home near Fort York. They are greeted with the damp, foggy landscape, which adds to their apprehension about the unfamiliar land. Walter shares a special bond with the Perier family, whom he has traveled with, and together, they disembark to face the hardships of the journey ahead. As they arrive at Fort York, a complex of log buildings, they begin to understand the challenges they will encounter, including tracking rivers, portaging boats, and adjusting to life in the wilderness—all while they navigate relationships with diverse characters, such as the enigmatic and harsh steersman known as Murray. The beginning captures the spirit of exploration and the trials of pioneering life in a new and uncertain world. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
