**First Peoples in Canada provides an overview of all the Aboriginal
groups in Canada. Incorporating the latest research in anthropology,
archaeology, ethnography and history, this new edition describes
traditional ways of life, traces cultural changes that resulted from
contacts with the Europeans, and examines the controversial issues of
land claims and self-government that now affect Aboriginal societies.
Most importantly, this generously illustrated edition incorporates a
Nativist perspective in the analysis of Aboriginal cultures.
