Louis Riel was a prolific writer. Based on a comprehensive review of Riel's writing, the author examines his views on a variety of vital subjects, including the definition of the term Metis; matters of Metis identity; the condition, characteristics, and future of the First Nations; Jewish people and their need for statehood; Islam, as an ally of liberalism and a threat to Christianity and Western civilization; Quebec, as a nation state and protector of the Metis people; French Canadians, as part of the Metis family; the exceptionalism of the United States; the place and role of women; liberalism as the most evil of ideologies; and the imperative need of Metis unity. These relevant and timely topics, some of which have been sidelined or entirely ignored, are sure to stoke considerable controversy in our current social context. In so doing, it is hoped that this study will increase our understanding of Louis Riel, his thought, and his writings, and help create greater cohesion among Metis communities throughout North America at a time when attempts are being made to divide them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePreface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNote on Notes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDisclaimer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 1: Louis Riel and the Name e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 2: Louis Riel and e Identity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 3: Louis Riel and the e Nation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 4: Louis Riel and the Indians\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 5: Louis Riel and the Jews\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 6: Louis Riel and Islam\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 7: Louis Riel's Psycho-Spiritual State\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 8: Louis Riel and Quebec\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 9: Louis Riel and the French-Canadians\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChapter 10.
