| Summary | "The Unexploited West" by Major Ernest J. Chambers is a compilation of research focused on the natural resources of northern Canada's unexploited regions, written in the early 20th century. The book aims to consolidate and present the accumulated knowledge regarding the area's climate, agricultural potential, timber, minerals, and fauna to stimulate interest and exploration in these overlooked territories. The opening of the work serves as a preface, contextualizing the book's purpose and highlighting the increasing immigration and exploration pressures in Canada, particularly westward. Chambers informs the reader about the previous misconceptions regarding the vast land north of the “Fertile Belt,” once deemed sterile and inhospitable, but now reassessed due to valuable exploratory findings. He notes the historical research efforts and public demand for information, emphasizing the newfound recognition of the area’s economic potential, along with the publication's systematic arrangement of findings regarding the climate, soil, and resources of this enticing yet largely unknown frontier.
