Soft cover. Zustand: As New. As New; In this book Potyondi takes a new approach to Western Canadian history by offering a detailed look at the relationship between people and their evolving prairie environment. Focusing on the grasslands of southwestern Saskatchewan, this book traces the different ways in which Indian and Metis Peoples, ranchers and farmers adapted to that dry, harsh and beautiful land. Native Peoples burning the grass each spring to attract buffalo herds; Metis thriving in long-forgotten wintering communities; ranchers losing thousands of cattle in vicious blizzards; school children poisoning gophers by the millions to boost farm production; and pioneering soil scientists trying to tease bountiful crops out of ungenerous farmland; these are only a few of the stories recounted here. The result is a vivid portrait of how westerners deliberately changed the grasslands and how it, in turn, helped to shape their lives.

"The need for an assessment of the urban dimension of western Canadian development is obvious. Recent reviews of western Canadian history indicate that urban studies have not yet achieved a place of equality beside such areas as political, ethnic, native, or labour history. One of the main reasons for this is that unlike these areas of study, the writing of urban history most often begins with a local situation, and local history, unfortunately, rarely attracts the attention of professional scholars" - from the General Introduction.
