The Ojibwa of Western Canada, 1780 to 1870

About this book

"Peers examines the emergence of the western Ojibwa in the context of the historical forces that acted upon Native people and the spirit, determination, and strategies used to cope with those forces. She bases the work on fur-trade-company and government documents, traders' and missionaries' journals and diaries, letters, reminiscences, as well as ethnographic and archaeological data, material culture, and photographic and art images - many sources not accessible to pioneering scholars."--Jacket.
