Edwin Thompson Denig was assigned as the post bookkeeper at Fort Union on the Upper Missouri in 1837 by the American Fur Company. He spent close to two decades there and married into the Assiniboine. In the summer of 1851, Father Pierre Jean de Smet spent two weeks at Fort Union. He encouraged Denig to write a number of sketches of the manners and customs of the Assiniboine and neighboring tribes. Denig compiled additional information in response to queries by early ethnographers, including Henry Rowe Schoolcraft, who were collecting ethnological information about Indian tribes in the United States.

When a man lives to be a hundred he has many tales to tell. When that man is Dan Kennedy of the Carry the Kettle First Nation in Saskatchewan, his hundred-year-old memories and personal recollections are a part of Canada's heritage. As Chief Ochankugahe he witnessed the final days of Pre-Contact Assiniboine Sioux society, the turmoil of the Indian Wars, Ghost Dance, the Homestead Era and the Residential Schools. Educated at St. Boniface College, the chief is an articulate, reflective commentator as well as an eye-witness to history. Despite the extreme human trials covered in the book, including famine and war, the Chief uses humour and compassion and is writes without rancour.

Particularly valuable for Ronda's inclusion of pertinent background information about the various tribes and for his ethnological analysis. An appendix also places the Sacagawea myth in its proper perspective. Gracefully written, the book bridges the gap between academic and general audiences.OCo"Choice""

Genre | : Assiniboine Park (Winnipeg, Man.) |
ISBN | : 9781773370125 |
In 1904, Assiniboine Park was conceived as a people's playground, a place devoid of commercial amusements where all classes of Winnipeggers could relax and rejuvenate in idyllic and Arcadian surroundings. The book traces the development of the park and its infrastructure - the layout of fields, forests and gardens, the two pavilions, the conservatories and the zoo - and how this corresponded with an ever-evolving Winnipeg. It explains the actions, conflicts and arguments of a colourful cast of politicians and bureaucrats who made the park what it is today. The story of Assiniboine Park is told within the wider context of the evolution of urban parks in Canada and the United States.

First published in 1974, this best-selling book was lauded by Choice as 'an important, ground-breaking study of the Assiniboine and western Cree Indians who inhabited southern Manitoba and Saskatchewan' and 'essential reading for anyone interested in the history of the Canadian west before 1870.' Indians in the Fur Trade makes extensive use of previously unpublished Hudson's Bay Company archival materials and other available data to reconstruct the cultural geography of the West at the time of early contact, illustrating many of the rapid cultural transformations with maps and diagrams. Now with a new introduction and an update on sources, it will continue to be of great use to students and scholars of Native and Canadian history.
