The Lake Huron area of the Upper Great Lakes region, an
area spreading across vast parts of the United States and
Canada, has been inhabited by the Anishnaabeg for
millennia. Since their first contact with Europeans around
1600, the Anishnaabeg have interacted with—and struggled
against—changing and shifting European empires and the emerging
nation-states that have replaced them. Through their cultural
strength, diplomatic acumen, and a remarkable knack for adapting to
change, the Anishnaabeg of the Lake Huron Borderlands have
reemerged in the twenty-first century as a strong and vital people,
fully in charge of their destiny. Winner of the North American
Indian Prose Award, this first comprehensive cross-border history
of the Anishnaabeg provides an engaging account of four hundred
years of their life in the Lake Huron area, showing how their
history has been shaped and influenced by European contact and
trade. Three Fires Unity examines how shifting European
politics and, later, the imposition of the Canada–United States
border running through their homeland continue to affect them
today. In looking at the cultural, social, and political aspects of
this borderland contact, Phil Bellfy sheds light on how the
Anishnaabeg were able to survive and even thrive over the centuries
in this intensely contested region. Â Â Â Â
