Native Peoples and cultures of Canada : an anthropological overview

McMillan, Alan D. (Alan Daniel) 1945- (Author).

Summary: This comprehensive book, covering the period from pre-contact times to the present day, has become a standard text in classrooms nationwide. Now, Alan McMillan has created a second edition, substantially revised and enlarged, which incorporates the latest research in anthropology, archaeology, ethnography and history. Complemented by more than 150 photographs, drawings and maps, the text describes traditional ways of life, traces cultural changes resulting from European contact, and examines the controversial issues of land claims and self-government that face Canadia's First Nations today.
