Notes

Historian Bill Waiser re-examines the province’s early history, uncovering the complex social, environmental, and political forces that shaped the land before Saskatchewan became a province. Drawing on archival research and Indigenous oral histories, Waiser explores the lives of Indigenous peoples, fur traders, settlers, and newcomers, highlighting how their interactions transformed the landscape and laid the groundwork for modern Saskatchewan. The book challenges conventional pioneer narratives, presenting a richer, more inclusive account of the region’s past and the world that existed before Confederation reached the Prairies.

Winner of the 2016 Governor General's Literary Awards in the adult non-fiction category.
