1971246056Barre MA: Barre Publishers 1971. First edition. Illustrated. xii 240 1 pp. 1 vols. 4to. Original gray silver-blocked cloth blue cloth spine a fine copy in cloth slipcase. First edition. Illustrated. xii 240 1 pp. 1 vols. 4to. The Moisie is one of a network of navigable rivers running about 110 miles northward from the St. Lawrence in eastern Quebec; old and well worn portage paths testify to the antiquity of the route along which for hundreds of years Indians have hunted and fished. For salmon and sea trout it is one of the richest areas known. It is not surprising that the Moisie Salmon Club was founded to reap the benefits of this bounty and in this excellent account the history of the Club is brought up to the 1970s.
