It is a testimonial to the various trading companies, particularly the Hudson's Bay Company, that built vast empires while settling a wild and untamed frontier. By following the history of these forts, readers will see how the Hudson's Bay Company controlled the furtrading industry and merchandising supply network at the time and how they employed that sense of spirit and drive to be able to survive the test of time and become a major modern retail business.
