Description
These tales of bravery, courage and decisive action in times of terrible conflict are the stories of heroes. Although the lives of the Native chiefs and famous Métis featured in this book were often tinged with sadness and loss, they were also an inspiration. Full of adventures and battles, these tales ultimately tell of the negotiations, broken promises and harsh realities of the changing face of the West.
