Commencing May, 1852 written by Peter Jacobs and published by New York : Published for the author. This book was released on 1853 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Jacobs (1808-58) was the adopted name of Pahtahsega (literally, "he who comes shining," or "one who makes the world brighter"), an Ojibwa Indian who was an early convert to Christianity of the English Methodist missionary William Case. Born near Rice Lake in present-day southeastern Ontario, in 1842 Jacobs traveled to England where he was ordained as a Methodist minister. He worked for many years as a missionary in the vast region then known as Hudson's Bay Territory. Journal of the Reverend Peter Jacobs is his account of the journey that he took in May-October 1852 from his home in Rice Lake to the Hudson's Bay Company trading post of York Factory (present-day Manitoba) and back. Jacobs traveled the fur-traders' route, visiting the missions at Rossville and Oxford House. On his return journey, he nearly drowned in Lake Winnipeg, survived an early blizzard near Fort William (in present-day Thunder Bay, Ontario), and eventually made his way back to his wife and children in Rice Lake via steamer from Sault Sainte Marie to Detroit and from there to Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Toronto, and home. His journal (part of which he had to reconstruct from memory after losing his papers in Lake Winnipeg) provides a valuable description of the mission field, the great difficulties in winning native converts, and the perils of travel in this early period. The book contains two print portraits of Jacobs, one in Ojibwa clothing and another in Western dress, and a brief essay, "Peter Jacobs's History of Himself," in which he recounts his spiritual journey from belief in "the Great Being, the maker of all things" to his embrace of Christianity. It concludes with an account of the Wesleyan (Methodist) mission at Rossville in the Hudson's Bay Territory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word “Mississauga” is the name British Canadian settlers used for the Ojibwe on the north of Lake Ontario – now the most urbanized region in what is now Canada. The Ojibwe of this area in the early and mid-nineteenth century lived through a time of considerable threat to the survival of the First Nations, as they lost much of their autonomy, and almost all of their traditional territory. Donald B. Smith’s Mississauga Portraits recreates the lives of eight Ojibwe who lived during this period – all of whom are historically important and interesting figures, and seven of whom have never before received full biographical treatment. Each portrait is based on research drawn from an extensive collection of writings and recorded speeches by southern Ontario Ojibwe themselves, along with secondary sources. These documents – uncovered over the 40 years that Smith has spent researching and writing about the Ojibwe – represent the richest source of personal First Nations writing in Canada from the mid-nineteenth century. Mississauga Portraits is a sequel to Smith’s immensely popular Sacred Feathers, which provided a detailed biography of Mississauga chief and Methodist minister Peter Jones (1802–1856). The first chapter in Mississauga Portraits on Jones tightly links the two books, which together give readers a vivid composite picture of life in mid-nineteenth-century Aboriginal Canada.

Book excerpt: The Handbook of Native American Literature is a unique, comprehensive, and authoritative guide to the oral and written literatures of Native Americans. It lays the perfect foundation for understanding the works of Native American writers. Divided into three major sections, Native American Oral Literatures, The Historical Emergence of Native American Writing, and A Native American Renaissance: 1967 to the Present, it includes 22 lengthy essays, written by scholars of the Association for the Study of American Indian Literatures. The book features reports on the oral traditions of various tribes and topics such as the relation of the Bible, dreams, oratory, humor, autobiography, and federal land policies to Native American literature. Eight additional essays cover teaching Native American literature, new fiction, new theater, and other important topics, and there are bio-critical essays on more than 40 writers ranging from William Apes (who in the early 19th century denounced white society's treatment of his people) to contemporary poet Ray Young Bear. Packed with information that was once scattered and scarce, the Handbook of Native American Literature -a valuable one-volume resource-is sure to appeal to everyone interested in Native American history, culture, and literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much of the ground on which Canada’s largest metropolitan centre now stands was purchased by the British from the Mississauga Indians for a payment that in the end amounted to ten shillings. Sacred Feathers (1802–1856), or Peter Jones, as he became known in English, grew up hearing countless stories of the treachery in those negotiations, early lessons in the need for Indian vigilance in preserving their land and their rights. Donald B. Smith’s biography of this remarkable Ojibwa leader shows how well those early lessons were learned and how Jones used them to advance the welfare of his people. A groundbreaking book, Sacred Feathers was one of the first biographies of a Canadian Aboriginal to be based on his own writings – drawing on Jones’s letters, diaries, sermons, and his history of the Ojibwas – and the first modern account of the Mississauga Indians. As summarized by M.T. Kelly in Saturday Night when the book was first published in 1988, “This biography achieves something remarkable. Peter Jones emerges from its pages alive. We don’t merely understand him by the book’s end: we know him.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume addresses a wide range of topics related to Aboriginal resource use, ranging from the pre-contact period to the present. The papers were originally presented at a conference held in 1988 at the University of Winnipeg. Co-editor Kerry Abel has written an introduction that outlines the main themes of the book. She points out that it is difficult to know what the enshrinement of Aboriginal rights in the Canadian Constitution means without knowing exactly what constituted the Aboriginal interest in the land past and present. She also summarizes some of the developments in the rapidly evolving concept of Aboriginal rights.
