Red River Expedition, Colonel
Wolseley's camp, Prince Arthur's Landing, Lake Superior
1870,
by William Armstrong
Armstrong was an artist, civil engineer, photographer,
and draughtsman. He accompanied Colonel Garnet Wolseley
during the Red River Expedition as its chief engineer.
Many of his views of the Red River Expedition were published
in the Canadian Illustrated News and were well
received by Protestants and Orangemen in Ontario as
they eagerly followed reports of the expedition's progress.
