A teenage Metis trapper, reared in the Canadian wilderness, is thrust into civilization in early twentieth century Saskatchewan. Lynes and his family and friends become involved in historical events and interact with actual Prince Albert residents and prominent figures in Canadian history. This saga was inspired by the son of this trapper who wishes he had asked his father more questions about that colorful past while Lynes was still alive.
About the author
He was a husband, father, little brother, big brother, Uncle, grandfather and great grandfather. Most of all he was a friend to many. He loved them like his family with all of his being.
Guy was one of the toughest of men and the most generous of heart.
He worked hard and played harder. He enjoyed fishing, hunting, racing motorcycles, & so much more.
On a few occasions he would gather ingredients and materials to throw together a batch or two of shine. Shared also by a handful of homered persons.
Finally, he seemed to get a kick out of educating himself and discussing both religion and politics. Stopping by to say hello was almost guaranteed to engage in one or the other.
Sharing his experiences with his children and grandchildren was by far important beyond words. Some may say this was Guys way of modeling what it takes to “kick ass and take names.”
