Bibliography

Partly because of the secrecy of the company concerning its records and partly because of the strong feeling for and against the company, there has been no adequate, impartial, and scholarly history of the Hudson's Bay Company in general; E. E. Rich's official history (3 vol., 1961) is based on the company's records, but is not annotated. See introductions to scholarly editions of traders' journals, such as those of the Champlain Society.
