pp. 590, b/w sketch illustrations and photographs, epilogue, notes, bibliography, index, small bind crease to back cover. “From the point of view of Canada’s native peoples, this country has 57 founding nations, not just two. Canada’s First Nations is an exploration of the experience of these peoples from their first appearance among the giant mammals that once roamed the land to their confrontations with contemporary Canada. Aboriginal peoples have displayed both ingenuity and flexibility in their survival techniques. Their achievements in technology (the toggling harpoon, the canoe), and in the plant sciences (the development of maize, their herbal lore), have come to benefit the world.”
