| Summary | "The New North" by Agnes Deans Cameron is a travel narrative that recounts a woman's extensive journey through Canada toward the Arctic, written in the early 20th century. The book provides an account of the challenges, landscapes, and experiences encountered along the way, as the author ventures into the remote northern parts of Canada, highlighting interactions with diverse communities and cultures. At the start of "The New North," the author introduces her ambitious journey with enthusiasm, expressing a desire to explore the Canadian hinterland beyond the usual tourist paths. Cameron describes the initial leg of her journey from Chicago to Winnipeg, providing insights into the economic importance of Winnipeg as a hub in the wheat Belt and capturing the bustling energy of the city. She reflects on the cultural mosaic of its population and the historical significance of the Hudson's Bay Company, setting the stage for the expedition ahead. The opening emphasizes the author’s motivations, aspirations, and the expansive beauty of the Canadian landscape that she is determined to experience firsthand, while hinting at the personal growth that the adventure will bring.
