A series of four personal journeys. 1: As a Tale that Is Told. Writer
Ted Chamberlin grew up in southern Alberta, Canada, listening to the stories of his grandfather. In this land of big skies and endless prairie the warm chinook winds can melt the winter snow in the blinking of an eye. In the 1880s it was also the land where the Blackfoot, the Blood and the Piegan lived, the place where the newly established North West Mounted Police were building their HQ, and where Ted's grandfather opened the first bank and experienced the first bank robbery.
