5.0
An excellent read about one of Canada’s most important historical figures.
Brown’s subdued style fits this tale very well. Although it is a tragic and sad story, the book itself is a pleasure to read. It’s well written, paced and drawn. It doesn’t pretend to be a detailed accounts of events, but it does provide enough information for anybody who wants to understand what happened in Manitoba in the 1860-80s.
The book doesn’t pull its punches, it shows you how things went down, brutally.
Highly recommended for anybody interested in Canadian history.
