Editorial Review

Without question, the new reader by Getty and Lussier provides the best selection of historical articles on Canada’s Native peoples ever to appear ... It should be required reading for all attending future constitutional conferences on aboriginal rights. Ian Getty and Antoine Lussier have contributed to a new appreciation of Canada’s native people.
