Description
Ballantyne draws on his experiences as a clerk with the Hudson Bay Company to form the basis for this story in which he describes the lives of fur traders in the northern Canadian territories. The tale begins in the middle of winter and follows traders Charley, Harry and Hamilton (and their friends) as they learn the tricks of the fur trade and travel as fur trappers and emissaries to Native American tribes. As usual, Ballantyne includes a romantic aspect and fills his story with good humor. Snowflakes and Sunbeams combines the informative nature of Hudson's Bay with a complete cast of true and endearing characters.
