In this clazzic peice, Manton Marble takes us on a trip through the Red River Valley in the mid nineteenth century. For Manton, this is a pleasure trip, and he shows us the joy of the country and the people of the valley as he accompanies a group of prospectors on the way to Frazer River in search of gold. Included are the sketches from the original serialization and a short background piece, "The People of the Red River."
