Great Stories from the Canadian Frontier
by Gordon T. Stewart and Brian Antonson
- 1 Want to read
From the old rifle pit above the great meander bend of the South Saskatchewan I could feel the sun sinking its last rays painting the earth a subtle pink presaging the no-colours of dusk. Then, behind, the moon rose with a new light, washing the century old buildings at this place called Batoche - the place where the Metis made a final, desperate, futile stand in their battle for recognition as a distinct and separate people.
*Richard Thomas Wright, author
Winter 1977*
