Young, Delbert A. THE MOUNTIES
London Hodder and Stoughton 1968 340 02944 7 First Edition Hard Cover Fine Very Good
Hardcover, FINE/VERY GOOD PLUS, with little marring to front panel from sticker removal, unpriceclipped, edge rubbed dj. The thrilling story of the world-famous 'Royal Canadian Mounted Politice" -- 'the Mounties'. Created close to a century ago to tame the Canadian West, the Mounties did just that; then changed and grew, even as Canada did, until today, the Force boasts crime laboratories, radar, tracking dogs, an Air Division, and a Marine Division. However, during all those years of change, the calibre of the men themselves has remained the same. The entire story of the Mounties is here told, from their trying march westward as the Northwest Mounted Police in 1874, to their present-day feats of busting spy-rings and narcotics gangs. The author, a Canadian, has researched deeply into his subject, and made out of it a wonderfully readable story. (fep has small piece cut out where name probably was).
