The World for Sale by Gilbert Parker, Fiction, Action & Adventure 7+

📕 For what seemed a lifetime, he had labored among the Indians and the few whites and "squaw-men" -- with no sense of progress.Then, all at once, the railway arrived, bringing people from all the world -- and seeding the cities that seemed to spring up overnight, all across the broad Canadian prairie.Now once more he was living the life of civilization -- exchanging raw flesh of fish and animals and a meal of tallow or pemmican for the wheaten loaf -- the Indian tepee for the warm house with the mansard roof!
