Abstract
During the 1820s, Edmonton House re-emerged as the headquarters of a much larger Saskatchewan trading District of the Hudson's Bay Company. Its fur-gathering larger hinterland extended from the southern edges of the boreal forest near present-day Westlock, Alberta, south to the Missouri and Yellowstone Rivers, and from the confluence of the North and South Saskatchewan Rivers west to the Rocky Mountains - in short, virtually all of what is now central and southern Alberta, and parts of Saskatchewan and Montana. [...] The Bow River Expedition, 1822-1823 Seeking to expand the fur trade more completely into what is now southern Alberta, and northern Montana, the Hudson's Bay Company dispatched an expedition of officers and men up the South Saskatchewan River in 1822, with excursions to the Red Deer, Bow, and Oldman Rivers. Through circumstances, such as hostilities by certain Aboriginal groups and the scarcity of timber, persuaded the Company not to build a permanent post during this time, the journal of the expedition contains a wealth of information about the land and the people living on it. --From back cover

Abstract
This book examines the character and relevance of remembrance, inviting readers to think creatively and deeply about the ways that memories are transmitted, recorded, and distorted through time and space. Ranging from molecular genetics and astrophysics to law and Indigenous oral histories, the essays draw from a diverse group of contributors to capture different perspectives on memory. Reflecting upon memory in engaging and unexpected ways, this collection offers an interdisciplinary roadmap for exploring how, why, and when we remember. -- Provided by publisher.
