Cree

Two Cree groups, the Western Woods Crees and the Plains Crees, are explored in this rich volume that spans the history of the Cree people from prehistoric times to the modern day. European settlers, traders, and missionaries have affected the Cree people and their way of life. This volume addresses this complex history in an engaging way, and also looks at the rich cultural heritage of these groups, including their daily customs, religion, governmental structure, and art. Captivating illustrations and photography bring the lives of the Cree people—past and present—to life.
