The Ojibwa of Western Canada, 1780-1870
ISBN: 9780873513111 / Angielski / Miękka / 1994 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Among the most dynamic Aboriginal peoples in western Canada today are the Ojibwa, who have played an especially vital role in the development of an Aboriginal political voice at both levels of government. Yet, they are relative newcomers to the region, occupying the parkland and prairies only since the end of the 18th century.

The western Ojibwa are descendants...

ISBN: 9781771990370 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. In 2010, five magnificent Blackfoot shirts, now owned by the University of Oxford's Pitt Rivers Museum, were brought to Alberta to be exhibited at the Glenbow Museum, in Calgary, and the Galt Museum, in Lethbridge.

The shirts were later transported to England, where they had remained ever since. Exhibiting the shirts at the museums was, however, only one part of the project undertaken by Laura Peers and Alison Brown. Prior to the installation of the exhibits, groups...
