College-level collections specializing in Native American or early missionary studies will welcome the scholarly Missionaries Among Miners, Migrants & Blackfoot, packed with research based on primary source material - much of it previously unpublished. Here are the transcribed diaries of brothers Leonard and Victor Van Tighem, Catholic missionaries in Alberta between 1974 and 1917.Their observations record not only their experiences but hold letters from family and associates and articles by bishops and priests of their time. An excellent acquisition for any in-depth college-level collection in Canadian or Native American history.
