Title: Father Lacombe
Description: In 1849, Father Lacombe arrived in the West, to begin 67 years of ministry among the free-spirited Metis and the proud Cree and Blackfoot of the prairies and parklands. This book is a finely detailed portrait of the West during an era of irreversible change. It illuminates the personalities of a group of remarkable men, the rival pioneer missionaries who competed for converts among the Indians and Metis.
