The beaver hat made and unmade a continent. Laut tells the fur trade from inside the canoe: the French coureurs de bois, the Hudson's Bay men, the Nor'Westers, the Astorians, the mountain men and the rendezvous, and the Native nations who did most of the trapping and got the worst of every bargain. A Canadian historian who had talked to the last men still doing the work.
