Aprašymas
The stories begin in 1920, when the old Fort Johnson was closed until it became a provincial park and a museum upon Superintendent Rusty's death in 1960.This series of stories is meant to be an abridged timeline from 1920-1960. In addition to the fiction stories some of which are based upon real events from the time like the 1931 Estevan Riots. Yet there are also some non-fiction stories covering any interesting or relevant parts of the RCMP's history, such as the story of the S.S. St. Roche patrolling the Arctic Seas, the madman manhunt for Albert Johnson, the so-called Mad Trapper of Rat River, etc.
Now nobody knows exactly how old Superintendent Rusty really was, as he was born sometime between 1860-1863. So, when he died he was 97-100 years old. But, in any case, most people in the 19th century did not know when they were born exactly, and so the estimated their age, just like Superintendent Rusty did.
So, join Superintendent Rusty as he deals with an ever-changing world from the chaotic 1920s preventing socialist revolution, through the Great Depression, and his WWII service as the Inspector General of Prisoner of War and Internment Camps, to the early Cold War years along with the so-called "Years of Mental Instability" where Superintendent Rusty had four successors in four years.
As for Superintendent Rusty he'd have his reward, as he was the only RCMP member to become a "Ghost Mountie" after his death in office after 88 years of service to the Crown and to Canada.
"Je Suis; Je Reste" or "Here I am; Here I stay"- Sir. John A. Macdonald.
