Book Synopsis


Trade Review
"Walter Hildebrandt uses Fort Battleford as a lens through which to view the changes in the late 19th-century North-West caused by the arrival of Canadian federal authority. And he pulls no punches, calling this process by its proper name: imperial conquest. In listening carefully to the voices of the dispossessed First Nations and Metis peoples, Hildebrandt offers a challenge to the cherished myth of peaceful Canadian westward expansion. - Andrew Graybill, author of Policing the Great Plains: Rangers, Mounties, and the North American Frontier, 1875-1910"
