Setting out to visit his friends in Woodstock, New Brunswick at the age of 18, Tappan Adney embarked on a trip that would ultimately set the course of his life. Recounted in the dialect of the day with the added flair of Adney's inimitable humour, and augmented by maps, sketches, and photographs, these journals provide an authentic glimpse into the world before the turn of the 20th century.

The first volume showed us a remarkable young man who fell under the spell of the 19th century New Brunswick wilderness and the Maliseet people. In this second volume, we meet a man transformed from enthusiastic hunter to reflective woodsman and decades ahead of his time in foreseeing the need for environmental protection.
