Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Part historical biography, part compilation of the written works of Mary Rose Delorme Smith (18611960), a prolific and accomplished Metis woman.Born into a prominent fur-trading family and remembered as a community builder and rancher, Marie Rose Delorme Smith (18611960) is seldom recognized as a writer and chronicler of Metis and Prairie history. Fluent in French, English, and likely Michif, Delorme Smith recorded a wealth of written records and stories throughout her long life, in the form of letters, published articles, unpublished manuscripts, and personal documents.Donated to public archives following her death, these written works garnered some interest among scholars and biographers over the years, as prominent Indigenous women gradually found a place in the histories they had been left out of for generations. Delorme Smith became the subject of biographies and scholarly research, and she was finally recognized as a "National Historic Person" by the Canadian government in 2022. However, the recognition bestowed upon her rarely highlighted her own words, which reveal so much about her life, Metis history, and Prairie life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.For the first time, historian and biographer Doris Jeanne MacKinnon presents an extensive array of Delorme Smith's writings, preserved verbatim, and puts them in historical and social context. This fascinating collection of documents from a bygone era reveals the strength, intellect, and leadership of a fascinating Metis martriarch. Part historical biography, part compilation of the written works of Mary Rose Delorme Smith (18611960), a prolific and accomplished Metis woman.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Combining political biography and historical narrative, The Premier and His Grandmother introduces readers to two compelling and complex public figures. Born into a prominent fur trading family, Isabella Clarke Hardisty Lougheed (18611936) established a distinct role for herself as an influential Metis woman in southern Alberta, at a time when racial boundaries in the province were hardening and Metis activists established a firm foundation for the Metis to be recognized as distinct Indigenous Peoples.Isabella's grandson Edgar Peter Lougheed (19282021) served as premier of Alberta at a time when some of that activism achieved both successes and losses. Drawing on Peter Lougheed's personal papers, family interviews, and archival research, this book analyzes his political initiatives in the context of his own identity as a person of Metis ancestry. While there are several publications that refer to Peter Lougheed in the context of his role as premier, few of those publications have acknowledged his connection to an important Metis pioneer family and his connection to his Indigenous ancestors. An intriguing look at the connections between Alberta premier Peter Lougheed and his Metis grandmother, Isabella Clarke Hardisty Lougheed, exploring how Metis identity, political activism, and colonial institutional power shaped the lives and legacies of both.

Explores the integral roles that Metis women assumed to ensure the survival of their communities during the fur trade era and onwardMetis Matriarchs examines the roles of prominent Metis women from across Western Canada from the late 19th to the mid-20th century, providing a rare glimpse into the everyday lives of these remarkable women who were recognized as Matriarchs and respected for their knowledge, expertise, and authority within their families and communities.This edited collection provides an opportunity to learn about the significant contributions made by Metis women during a transitional period in Western Canadian history as the fur trade gave way to a more sedentary, industrialized, and agrarian economy. Challenging how we think about Western Canadian settlement processes that removed Indigenous peoples from the land, this collection of stories examines the ways Metis matriarchs responded to colonial and settler colonial interventions into their lives and livelihoods and ultimately ensured the cultural survival of their Explores the integral roles that Metis women assumed to ensure the survival of their communities during the fur trade era and onward Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
