Abstract
"Knots in a String is a comprehensive account of Canada's First Peoples. The book takes the reader from the diverse nations living on the continent before European contact to contemporary issues of concern to all Canadians today. Who are the many Nations of Native people in Canada today? What is their role in Canadian history? What do the treaties mean? What are Aboriginal rights? Why are Native people laying claim to the land? What forms could self-government take? Why are Native people suffering socio-economic inequality?
Knots in a String is a general introduction for anyone interested in learning more about Native people in Canada. It can be used as a supplementary text for introductory courses in Native Studies."--Back cover.
