Gabriel Dumont: Memoirs; Gabriel Dumont : Memoire - Dumont, Gabriel; Combet, Denis; Gaboury-Diallo, Lise

In French and English; Clean, tight, unmarked; spine straight and uncreased; very minimal wear; appears unread; The Memoirs as dictated by Gabriel Dumont and Gabriel Dumont's Story; Gabriel Dumont, Louis Riel's general, speaks in order to correct the official version of events, which was often exaggerated or untrue. Beyond the epic events of the 1885 North-West Metis Resistance, it is the role of Dumont and his superior heroism that stand out. With this transcription of historical documents, Dumont's oral account, dictated around 1902-1903, is transformed into a written text that re-establishes for history the honour and dignity of an individual and of a people.
