Back Roads to Bliss (Saskatchewan Saga Book #6)
All good things must come to an end, and Ruth Glover's irresistible fiction series will be wrapped up in Backroads to Bliss. This final portion of romance, humor, and historical storytelling will charm fans of the series, which details the adventures of Saskatchewan's unflagging settlers. In Backroads to Bliss, Glover once again infuses her characters with the exhilaration, pride, and grit that typified those who settled Canada's untamed bush country. She begins in England with Allison Middleton, a spoiled daughter of the aristocracy. When Allison makes the grave error of embarrassing her snooty father, she is banished to the far reaches of the Empire: the wilds of Canada. Allison's long trek from pampered society girl to penniless immigrant is as moving as it is entertaining. With warmth and spirit, Glover shows how anyone who asks for redemption can find it in God's waiting arms.
Treaty Elders of Saskatchewan
"It is my hope, and the hope of the Office of the Treaty Commissioner, that this publication can help provide the historical context needed to intelligently and respectfully forge new relations between First Nations people and non-Aboriginal people in the province of Saskatchewan. It has already done so, in part, by facilitating the work of our office in bringing together the parties of the Federation of Saskatchewan Indian Nations and Canada to reach common understandings and to use the Treaties as a bridge from the past to the future ... so that we can learn from the past and work together towards a future built on co-operation and mutual respect." Judge David M. Arnot, Treaty Commissioner...
Bounty and Benevolence
Arthur Ray, Jim Miller, and Frank Tough draw on a wide range of documentary sources to provide a rich and complex interpretation of the process that led to these historic agreements. The authors explain how Saskatchewan treaties were shaped by long-standing First Nations' Hudson's Bay Company diplomatic and economic understandings, treaty practices developed in eastern Canada before the 1870s, and the changing economic and political realities of western Canada during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Ray, Miller, and Tough also show why these same forces were responsible for creating some of the misunderstandings and disputes that subsequently arose between the First Nations and government officials regarding the interpretation and implementation of the accords. Bounty and Benevolence offers new insights into this crucial dimension of Canadian history, making it of interest to the general reader as well as specialists in the field of First Nations history.
Coming Home
Through the authors reminiscences, we experience life on the prairies as it was more than 60 years ago, and as it is today.
The Story of Saskatchewan School No. 99
The Story of Saskatchewan School No. 99 is a unique portrayal of early education and the lives of settlers along the South Saskatchewan River. By weaving his own personal recollections with facts, anecdotes, and stories from interviews and other historical sources, author Bob Wahl has created a history book that will appeal to both historians and the general public. Outstanding photos and copies of historic documents help complete the story of a school established in 1887 and the settlers of Clark's Crossing - many of whom were Old Colony Mennonites. Although a local history, this book will appeal to any Canadian interested in a portrait of the hardships, conflicts, and tragedies, as well as the successes and accomplishments of our country's early pioneers.
