This exploration of hegemony and resistance debunks the myth of Canada's peaceful settlement of the West. * Prairie Books Now, No. 59, Summer 2012 * Fascinating...Erickson's substantive incorporation of elements beyond the text, including courthouse architecture, prairie visual culture and police photography, also enliven her discussion of legal and sociocultural developments...scholars of western Canadian legal, sex-trade and cultural history will find this book a valuable and engaging addition to both teaching and research. -- Laurie K. Bertram, University of Alberta * Journal of Colonialism and Colonial History, Vol. 13 No. 3, Winter 2012 *
