For four decades, Jennifer S. H. Brown has examined the complex relationships that developed among the newcomers to Rupert's Land and the existing Algonquian communities - who hosted and tolerated the fur traders - and later, the missionaries, anthropologists, and others who found their way into Indigenous lives and territories.

As a whole, this volume represents the scholarly evolution of one of the leading ethnohistorians in Canada and the United States.
