Abstract

"Among Anglo-Canadian fur traders of the early nineteenth century, George Nelson stands out for his interest in the life and ways of the native people he encountered. Nelson kept a letter-journal, addressed to his father, in which he related his observations of Cree and Northern Ojibwa religion and myth."--WorldCat.org.
