Historical Fiction

This is a collection of stories about the men who served in the Northwest Mounted police and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. All are fiction but some are based on real incidents. They are also of varying quality. Most are excerpts from novels by authors such as Rudy Wiebe, Ralph Connor and Wallace Stegner. Many of the stories were written in the late 19th Century and are about living in the northern Canada in severely primitive and cold conditions.

The editor gives sources for the full novel from which the excerpt was taken. ( )
