Partners in Fur: A History of the Fur Trade in Eastern James Bay, 1600-1870 - Francis, Daniel; Morantz, Toby

Clean, tight, unmarked; some light sunning to spine; otherwise very minimal wear; appears unread; In this study, the authors investigate the effects of the fur trade on the social patterns of the Algonquian peoples living in the Eastern James Bay region from 1600 to 1870. Of central concern are the problem areas of winter hunting arrangements, land tenure system, and patterns of leadership; but historical setting, ecological factors, and the relations of the Algonquins to other groups are also discussed.
