Adults need playgrounds. In 1907, the Canadian government
designated a vast section of the Rocky Mountains as Jasper Forest
Park. Tourists now play where Native peoples once lived, fur
traders toiled, and Metis families homesteaded. In Culturing
Wilderness in Jasper National Park, I.S. MacLaren and eight other
writers unearth the largely unrecorded past of the upper Athabasca
River watershed, and bring to light two centuries' worth of human
history, tracing the evolution of trading routes into the Rockies'
largest park. Serious history enthusiasts and those with an
interest in Canada's national parks will find a sense of connection
in this long overdue study of Jasper.
