Reviews

Founded in 1788, Fort Chipewyan has undergone many changes to its social, cultural, economic, and political landscape over the more than two centuries covered in this book. Archival documents, photographs, and maps enhance Patricia McCormack's comprehensive analysis of the ""contact zone"" in which First Nations people and settler society met, clashed, and grappled with each other in Alberta's oldest European settlement. - Dr. Cora J. Voyageur, Sociologist, University of Calgary & Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation Member
