It will be seen that the territory covered is very extensive, and in 

 fact til ere are very few areas of geological interest in the Dominion 

 to which one cannot find some reference in these books. 



These guide-books will prove invaluable to tourists and also to 

 prospectors and emigrants having some acquaintance with geology 

 and seeking fuller information of the Dominion. 



Y. — Hudson Bay Exploring Expedition, 1912. By J. B. Ttkeell. 

 Twent5'^-second Keport of the Ontario Bureau of Mines, 1913. 



rpHE author describes his journey down the Nelson Eiver from 

 JL Lake Winnipeg to its junction with the Echimamish, up this 

 river to its head, across the narrow rocky divide which bounds the 

 waters of the Nelson Eiver on the east and then down the Hayes 

 Eiver to York Factory on Hudson Bay. 



The Hayes Eiver was surveyed by Professor Stewart, of Toronto, 

 from its junction with the Shamattawa Eiver to its mouth, a distance 

 of 60 miles, while the author made a short expedition up the 

 Shamattawa and also explored the country in the neighbourhood of 

 York Factory. 



On the return journey passage was taken to Fort Severn at the 

 mouth of the Severn Eiver, which was ascended in canoes for 

 a distance of 56 miles to the mouth of Fawn Eiver. This river was 

 then ascended for 180 miles to Trout Lake, from which point the 

 route lay southward to Cat Lake, on the waters of the Albany Eiver, 

 passing a number of important lakes on the way.
