Publisher's Note: This biography of John McLoughlin, 'the white-headed eagle', captures the life of a man whose legend has become central to the history of the Pacific Northwest. Under his iron hand, Hudson's Bay headquarters was established at Fort Vancouver -- a fort which became a prosperous fur-trading Mecca in the middle of the wild, western frontier. Amply illustrated with many period prints and photographs, and interlaced with brief excerpts from McLoughlin's own writings, Morrison draws a vivid, fascinating portrait of a pioneer and the early Northwestern frontier.
