Clean, tight, unmarked; very minimal wear; More than one man's memoir, this book is a record of one of the most turbulent periods in Canadian history. Included is Deane's account of the North-West Rebellion, when he was in command of the Headquarters Division at Regina. There he was responsible for Louis Riel during his imprisonment, trial and execution. This book includes transcripts of the trial, as well as previously unpublished letters and document written by Riel, including a poem given to Deane by the Metis leader. Finally, this book enters the realm of true crime writing with Dean's accounts of cattle smuggling, robbery, and sensational murders in the early days of the Canadian west.
