Description

Book Synopsis
A compelling study of Harold Innis's engagement with a remarkable – but largely overlooked – historical figure.

Trade Review
"Buxton has done a great service to illuminate the later stages of Innis fur trade research and re-focus the reader's attention on Peter Pond, as Innis would have wanted. By meticulously collecting and curating Innis's writings on Pond, Buxton has provided a valuable one-stop venue for graduate students and academic historians interested in the 18th century fur trade as seen through the eyes of one of its most prominent historical actors, and also one of its most important historical scholars." Arctic
“Similar to Innis’ efforts to rescue Pond from obscurity, Buxton has drawn attention to the historian’s often-ignored biographical works and has provided not only a detailed picture of Innis’s scholarship on Pond, but more broadly he has demonstrated the interaction between biographical writing, commemoration, and nation-making.” The Canadian Historical Review
