Book Description
This volume traces the history of the Indians in the Grand River Valley from the first written record in 1627 until the middle of the nineteenth century. Much of the book is devoted to the Six Nations Indians who, dispossessed of their homes in the Mohawk River Valley because of their allegiance to the British cause during the American War of Independence, were granted lands on the Grand River in Ontario after the war. From this grant arose many problems—the Indians' right to sell their land, the difficulties of such sales, their transition from a fur to an agricultural economy, the position of the Six Nations in the War of 1812 and the Rebellion of 1837, and the adjustment of the Indians to a European way of life, religion, and education. All of this is told in the words of the missionaries, travellers, army officers, government officials and settlers, as well as in the vigorous letters and speeches of the Indians themselves. (Ontario Series of the Champlain Society, Volume 7)

Book Description
"The Eternal Maiden" is a novel by T. Everett Harré, set in the lands of the far North. The story follows an ancient Eskimo legend about eh beginning of life on the Earth and the first people who had a gift to love and kill. This novel offers romance developed in the complex conditions of the lands of eternal snow and frost and the charm of the Eskimo attitude to life, where the mystic closely borders the real.
