Book Description :
Revised and expanded to include fresh research, a discussion of recent interpretive trends, and a review of new literature, The Free People&8213Li Gens Libres is a comprehensive history of the M&233tis community and national historic site of Batoche, Saskatchewan.Diane Payment has a long personal association with Batoche her study is the culmination of thirty years of documentary and field research as a participant-observer within the community. Her inquiry draws on a range of dictated and written historical sources, both M&233tis and non&8211M&233tis, as well as more recent oral history narratives and personal observations.The Free People is one of the few studies on M&233tis communities in western and northern Canada. Payments approach demonstrates that any understanding of M&233tis culture cannot be based on European or Euro&8211Canadian historical models, but on its own values and traditions. She argues that Batoche has persisted as a community despite conflict, crisis, and prejudice from immigrant ethnic groups and institutions such as the Canadian government and the Roman Catholic Church, succeeding in maintaining its uniquely M&233tis identity.
