The Battle of Batoche: British Small Warfare and the Entrenched Métis - Hildebrandt, Walter

Clean, tight, unmarked; very minimal wear; Each year since the battle at Batoche in 1885, Metis people gather there to commemorate the sacrifices of our ancestors and celebrate our culture. Despite the defeat on the battlefield and the subsequent execution of our leader Louis Riel, I welcome this book for accurately capturing the military history of the NorthWest Resistance. Instilling in Canadians an appreciation of the powerful forces at work during that period can foster a better understanding of the challenges faced today by the Metis Nation in its ongoing struggle for self-determination within Canada." - Clement Chartier
