- Aboriginal issues feature prominently on the Canadian agenda, from land claims agreements to self-government to resource rights, and First Peoples in Canada sets the context for the evolving relationship between Canada and the Aboriginal communities whitin its borders. This comprehensive book, widely used as a basic text in universities and colleges, now incorporates a Native perspective with new research from archaeology, anthropology, ethnography and history to tell the story of Aboriginal people from ancient times to the present. Generously illustrated with many maps, drawings and photographs, these pages clearly detail the rich cultures of all First Nations in this country. -- From back cover

- Abstract
- Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump in Alberta is one of the oldest, largest, and best-preserved buffalo jump sites in North America and was declared a World Heritage Site in 1981. Author Gordon Reid has compiled a history of this significant site, describing the importance of the buffalo to Native peoples, how the jump was used, and the traditions and skills surrounding the hunt. He also looks at the excavation of the site, explaining how archaeologists uncovered artifacts, and what they learned about the history of the site and the people who used it. Also included is an overview of the resources offered by the Head Smashed-In Buffalo Jump interpretive centre. This book, originally published in 1993, has been a very popular resource for tourists, educators, students, and people interested in Alberta's heritage. Completely updated and redesigned for this new edition, it will be the only book available that explains, in depth, the vital role of Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump in Native history.
