Abstract
"Originally published in 1908, these are tales of the Algonquin Indians from the Lake Temagami region of Ontario, Canada. Cy Warman (1855-1914) wrote about railroading in the American West, and later moved to Canada, where some railroad stations are named for him. He and his wife traveled, writing about railroads in Asia and Europe."--WorldCat.org.
