First published in 1974, this best-selling book was lauded by Choice as 'an important, ground-breaking study of the Assiniboine and western Cree Indians who inhabited southern Manitoba and Saskatchewan' and 'essential reading for anyone interested in the history of the Canadian west before 1870.' Indians in the Fur Trade makes extensive use of previously unpublished Hudson's Bay Company archival materials and other available data to reconstruct the cultural geography of the West at the time of early contact, illustrating many of the rapid cultural transformations with maps and diagrams. Now with a new introduction and an update on sources, it will continue to be of great use to students and scholars of Native and Canadian history.

"It might be said that Canada was founded because of a fad of fashion - the insatiable demand for beaver hats that swept through Europe in the late 17th century. When it was discovered that the beaver existed in abundance in North America, the fur trade was born. As trappers in their relentless pursuit of beaver probed every stream and lake moving ever deeper into the wilderness, they pushed back the boundaries and opened the way for the settlers who followed them. Let Them Be Remembered, by Elizabeth Browne Losey is the story of the fur trade and the fur trade forts. Over the course of twenty years, the author and her husband, long interested in the fur trade, not only sought information from a wealth of sources such as fort journals and traders' diaries and letters, but also searched for and traveled to the sites of the forts themselves."--: //uwwebpro.uwinnipeg.ca/academic/ic/rupert/OrderForms.html.

The patterns and course of contact between traders from Europe and the Indian populations are described and both English and French sources are used to reveal the competition between the two groups of traders and its impact on the native people. As the Hudson's Bay Company was the one permanent European presence during the period, this ethnohistorical study makes extensive use of unpublished HBC papers. The authors also examine such issues as the rise of a homeguard population at the trading posts, the trading captain system, the development of hamily hunting territories, and the issue of dependence and interdependence. Partners in Furs provides new insight and makes a significant contribution to current scholarly inquiry into the impact of the fur trade on the native populations.
