[978-1-926795-03-4] 2011. (4to, wrappers) As new. 301pp. Stored in 1.5 inch binder for easy access. "One hundred and twenty-six years ago, approximately 250 Métis men took up arms to fight for their rights against an oppressive political regime. In this timely monograph, Lawrence J. Barkwell documents the Métis resistance in 1885 and the South Branch Métis Settlement's military and political structures. Besides methodically listing all the Métis participants in the 1885 Resistance, this useful genealogical resource also documents the Métis heroines of Batoche as well as the First Nations and Euro-Canadians who rallied to the Métis cause. Perhaps most importantly, this monograph provides a tangible link between contemporary Métis community people and their ancestors who desperately fought to preserve their way of life so long ago.".

"This ground breaking book, the first time that s systematic account of the Michif worldview has appeared in one volume, provides readers with a holistic appreciation of what it means to be 'Michif'. With contributions from Elders, scholars and laypeople, Metis Legacy II provides the reader with a thorough overview of the central tenets of the Michif world-view including language, spiritualism, superstition, storytelling, music, dance, healing traditions, communalism, material culture, family life, foods, gaming, holidays, and celebrations.
