Jean Barman rewrites the history of the Pacific Northwest from the
perspective of the French Canadians involved in the fur economy,
the Indigenous women whose presence in their lives encouraged them
to stay, and their descendants. For half a century, French
Canadians were the region's largest group of newcomers,
facilitating early overland crossings, driving the fur economy,
initiating non-wholly-Indigenous agricultural settlement, and
easing relations with Indigenous peoples. When the region was
divided in 1846, they also ensured that the northern half would go
to Britain, ultimately giving Canada its Pacific shoreline.
