From the pageantry of the Musical Ride to the movie-good looks of the fictional Dudley Do-Right, the image of the handsome and stalwart Mountie has long been part of popular North American culture.
But there’s more to being a member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police than wearing a red coat. It’s an important career in law enforcement and public service.
In M is for Mountie: A Royal Canadian Mounted Police Alphabet, award-winning author Polly Horvath explains the proud traditions and important work of Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Where do cadets go for training? Who is William Dempster and why is there a highway named after him? And what is the reason for the red coat?
After reading M is for Mountie, readers will have a better understanding of and appreciation for the history, heritage, and ongoing mission of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police organization.
