| Description: | Take a trip through time and visit Fort George & Buckingham House Provincial Historic Site, the location of two competing fur trade posts.

Listen as William Tomison, the Chief Factor of Buckingham House, reflects and writes in his journal.

Meet the "Country Wife" and learn about the important role she played as the link between two cultures.
