Synopsis

This book tells the story of the Red River Rebellion of 1869-70, which was a pivotal event in Canadian history. The author, a Catholic Archbishop, was sent by the Canadian government to negotiate with the rebellious Métis people. Through his negotiations he extracted promises of amnesty for those involved in the rebellion, and the peaceful transfer of the Red River Colony to the Dominion of Canada. The account is a firsthand narrative of the events and political machinations that led to the rebellion, and the author's role in its resolution. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on a complex and often misunderstood period in Canadian history.
