"Several of the papers in this volume were presented at a small academic session - advertised as the 'Riel Mini-Conference' - held at the University of Alberta on October 21, 1978. This session was important as marking the double purpose. It was, first of all, a forum in which to exchange ideas about Louis Riel's significance, the Metis experience, and the causes and implications of the 1870 and 1885 uprisings. In addition to this, it provided the opportunity to inform Canadian academic historians, as well as the general public of what the Riel Project was all about". Book about Louis Riel.
