We're just going to hold up the bank.'" This book will be especially fascinating for all readers interested in: history western Canada When the train came west through southern Saskatchewan and Alberta, settlers and then outlaws were quick to follow. They came with high hopes and grand ambitions, but the Depression and a series of natural disasters left them destitute.
