For four decades, Jennifer S. H. Brown has examined the complex relationships that developed among the newcomers to Rupert's Land and the existing Algonquian communities - who hosted and tolerated the fur traders - and later, the missionaries, anthropologists, and others who found their way into Indigenous lives and territories. The eighteen essays gathered in this book explore Brown's investigations into the surprising range of interactions among Indigenous people and newcomers as they met or observed one another from a distance, and as they competed, compromised, and rejected or adapted to change. As a whole, this volume represents the scholarly evolution of one of the leading ethnohistorians in Canada and the United States.
