"Making Western Canada challenges uncritical historiies of a peaceful, orderly and anglocentric Canadian West. Collectively, its authors suggest the potential of more inclusive histories based on the social relationships that knit the region's history..." Elizabeth Jameson, Department of History, University of Calgary

This ground-breaking collection demonstrates the research interests of a new generation of scholars. Stressing such themes as gender, race and class, the book is compelling evidence that Western Canadian history is far more complex and subtle than its depiction in the traditional literature. The contributors emphasize the way society has been made, and the extent to which is was—and is—the product of human agency rather than possessing an intangisble existence beyond the interaction of groups of people.
