Summary:  "Collier, a young Englishman who first came to Canada in 1919, married a quarter-breed Indian girl, then with wife, small child, a wagon, and thirty dollars, took off into the primitive wilderness of British Columbia where he had been granted sole trapping rights to 150,000 acres.  There in a frighteningly remote area they built their home and almost single-handedly brought the barren wilderness back to life, in the process, creating a truly remarkable family relationship."
