People of the Deer (Death of a People)
Format: Paperback
Author: Farley Mowat
ReleaseDate: 30 November, 2004
Publisher: Carroll & Graf
Rating: 
Concept is correct 
These people were led to their demise by three factors: the church, commercialization (HBC), and the Canadian government. The concept is correct anyway. Mowat claims he spent two years living among these people. This is doubted by some. I've traveled in some of the areas that this book takes place. Not everyone has great things to say about this author. One person I talked to called him a historical novelist. He has other nicknames.
But while it is questionable that all the events described in this book and its' successor (The Desperate People) actually took place, at least he got the main theme correct.
.
The worst book EVER... 
What ever you do, do not waste your precious life reading this book.
Yes! A life-afirming wonderous book! 
You will never think about a small band of Indians as statistics again. This book is magic. This book does volumes to make people of our society really feel what goes on in traditional societies. To feel jealous of their solidarity. To feel unloved by our own. It's great! READ IT.
