Description:... Lac La Biche served for many years as a 'gateway community' for fur trade in western Canada. This important role, neglected in historical and archaeological research, is documented in detail here. Rich in reproductions of historical documents, photographs, and archaeological remains, this book provides an intimate look at the fur trader's perspective and that of the people who settled the town of Lac La Biche.
