- Abstract
- Walsh is written by Sharon Pollock, a Canadian playwright. The tragedy premiered in November of 1973. The play focuses on the real-life interactions between an exiled tribe of Sioux, lead by Chief Sitting Bull, and the North-West Mounted Police, lead by Commissioner James Walsh. The friendships that develop between the tribe and the NWMP conflicts with the orders Walsh has to send the Sioux back to America, where they will be slaughtered.The fifteen-person cast help to teach the audience about a historical event they may not have known about. The play uses the historical events to discuss issues of Canadian identity, cultural differences, and morals.

- Abstract
- "All these faces that appear in close-up in the news or in the press are also men. The name of Lionel Terray, one of the most famous living mountaineers, comes back periodically in conversations, because he participated in a rescue or because he helped to conquer a great world summit like Annapurna or the Makalu. In The Conquerors of the Useless , it is the whole mountain and its secrets that it reveals to us without emphasis and especially without pretension. We see how a little boy can already sense his vocation and soon to live only for the mountain; how this passion led him from the Alps to the Himalayas, from Canada to Peru. Each story of his prodigious ascensions will fascinate those who know the mountain only through the cable car. Indeed, this book that Lionel Terray wrote entirely himself using notes and stories in which he fixed his memories throughout his career, was written for them. The Conquerors of the Useless is an indispensable book for anyone interested in the heroic fate of the last survivors of the Knights race. " (from publisher's website)
