THE FUR TRADE AXE: A PRELIMINARY REPORT OF IRON TRADE AXES FOUND IN NORTHERN MINNESOTA, NORTHERN WISCONSIN AND NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO
By David Peterson page 165 - 186
David is creating a catalogue of every trade axe he can find in that area. With over 500 accounted for he can put country of origin and sometimes even name the blacksmith by the marks on the blade to the axe he is working on. Our Nipigon Museum just added 12 axes to his book this past weekend at Lakehead University.
