In the winter of 1931, a mysterious fugitive led police on a 300-kilometer chase through northern Canada
In the winter of 1931, a dramatic manhunt unfolded in northern Canada when a reclusive trapper shot a constable and fled across the frigid landscape. In the chase that followed the mysterious fugitive amazed his pursuers with his almost superhuman abilities. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll describe the hunt for the "Mad Trapper of Rat River."
We'll also visit a forgotten windbreak and puzzle over a father's age.
