    Extractions: The area's excellent hunting and fishing are what drew the first people to what would become Saskatchewan. In time, the Plains Ojibwa, Assiniboine and Plains Cree became the prominent groups in the south, all of them seminomadic bison hunters. To the north, in the western subarctic region, the Slave and Chipewyan people were primarily caribou hunters who supplemented their diet with musk ox, moose, arctic hare and fish. They lived in skin or bark houses (not unlike the tepee, but more rounded) in semipermanent settlements. The first European to see Saskatchewan was the English explorer Henry Kelsey, who arrived in the 1690s. The fur trade soon attracted others, and the Hudson's Bay Company began to establish its dominion over great stretches of territory. Eventually, permanent settlements began to spring up, as farmers and ranchers tried their luck on the prairie, especially after the arrival of the Canadian Pacific Railway in the 1880s.

    Extractions: This book brings together for the first time, in a single collection of essays, individuals and groups of Saskatchewan women frequently overlooked or neglected by writers of Saskatchewan history. The book examines Saskatchewan women, as diverse in their experiences as they are in their identities. This approach - focussing on "polyphony" or "multivocality" - is not new to women's history or other feminist disciplines, but it is new to Saskatchewan women's history. By highlighting the province's diversity in race, ethnicity, class, religion and language, this collection of essays brings Saskatchewan women's history to the forefront of an important and current historical debate over the role that gender plays in the lives of Canadian women.

    Extractions: Compiled by Big River History Book Committee It is uncertain when the original 'Indian' tribes began to settle in bands in the Big River area. With the infiltration of the white populations in the east, the tribes began to retreat further west and north, away from the white settlements and into the area that would eventually become known as Saskatchewan. The earliest Cree tribes in the Big River area are said to be the descendants of the Dogrib and Wood Indians from Athabasca. These people enjoyed an abundant supply of water and prosperous hunting grounds. One band of Cree established a camp on the banks of a long, narrow river. They called it 'Oklemow-Cee-Pee' which, when translated, means 'Big River'. It is from this translation that the town of Big River got it's name. From legends handed down through generations of Cree Indians, we learn that a band of Stoney Indians established a camp site on the west side of a lake currently named Delaronde. After the battle of Little Big Horn, some of the surviving followers of Chief Sitting Bull made their way to a Delaronde beach. The local Crees named this lake 'The Lake of the Stoneys' and so for years it was known as 'Stoney Lake' to the settlers. Sometime later it was officially renamed in honor of Alex Delaronde, one of the early settlers who ran a stopping place at the south end of the lake.

    Review Discovering saskatchewan history. J. Mark Mealing. TAFT, Michael •Discovering Saskatchewan Folklore Three Case Studies.

    Extractions: J. Mark Mealing TAFT, Michael • Discovering Saskatchewan Folklore: Three Case Studies. Edmonton, NeWest Press, n.d. (1983). pp. 150. Available from: NeWest Publishers, Ltd., Suite 204, 8631 109th Street, Edmonton, AB T6G 1E8. Price not given. The format of this recent work by Michael Taft is that of an extended scholarly paper, but its style clearly aims beyond academe to embrace the serious reader and intrigue the scanner. Taft opens with two brief chapters; the first develops his broad and lively working definition of folklore ("...customs, traditions, and heritage. . . right under our own noses. . . the kind of creativity shared by members of a group.") alongside a basic outline of folklore genres, their forms and functions. The second chapter tackles the problem of identifying Saskatchewan folklore by developing, through detailed examples from regional song tradition, the concept and process of the oikotype, aptly illustrating the breadth of universal sources and the depth of local and personal adaptation. Taft's conclusion reaffirms both the uniqueness and universality (old lively paradox!) of the traditions that concern himself and his informants, thereby rendering homage to the creativity of individuals and the human unity from which they draw their special strengths. Thus he illuminates the essential powers and purposes of folklore: an aspect of humanity that encounters external reality, creating what did not heretofore exist, transforming continually what always existed. No small part of Taft's success in his avoidance of scholarly jargon, and the ensuing focus upon lively content, perpetually obliging the reader to approach tradition directly and personally, as do the folk.

    Extractions: Saskatchewan: History and People History The name Saskatchewan originated with the Plains Indians. Their word was "kisiskatchewan"- meaning the river that flows swiftly - in reference to the most important waterways running through their territory, the North and South Saskatchewan Rivers. The Canadian plains have long been home to Aboriginal people. The earliest European to enter the area was Henry Kelsey, a Hudson's Bay Company agent, who followed the Saskatchewan River into the southern plains of Saskatchewan in about 1690. The early 1880's were a time of great concern on the Canadian prairie. The aboriginal people on their 'reservations" were starving and freezing to death, the Métis were concerned that they would not receive title to their lands and the promised railway was no longer coming to support the farmers and settlers. Once again the people of the west were in crisis. They called on Louis Riel, the leader of the Métis and the man who had brought Manitoba into Confederation, to assist them in this crisis. After eight months of constitutional negotiations armed conflict broke out in March 1885. Five thousand Canadian troops were sent west and the 'rebellion' was put down. Louis Riel and eight Indian leaders were executed.
