Grant MacEwan was a copious writer on Western Canadian topics and a very well researched one. This book on the refugee period of the Lakotah in Canada is not sensationalist and brings out the large degree of cooperation between the RCMP, settlers, and this group of Sioux. It is well worth reading, especially providing an alternative view of White-First Nations interaction than "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee." ( ) Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
"For many years citizens of both Canada and United States were satisfied to think of the Sioux chief, Sitting Bull, as a treacherous savage, a menace to the white man's design for the development of the country. Newspaper reports made him the most notorious figure on the western frontier. After the Custer affair of 1876 - for which he was held responsible - his reputation was for massacre and murder. ... But why the Canadian interest in Sitting Bull? ... He became a symbol of the conflict between the hordes of greedy newcomers and the frustrated native defenders."--Desc. at www.popula.com.
