Book Review

Hunters at the Margin: Native People and Wildlife Conservation in the Northwest Territories. By John Sandlos. Foreword by Graeme Wynn. (Vancouver: UBC Press, 2007. xxiii + 333 pp. Illustrations, maps, charts, appendix, notes, bibliography, index. $85.00, cloth; $32.95, paper.)

Since the earliest Native-newcomer contact in North America, use of the natural environment, and especially use of the local fur, fish, and game resources was often the central point of conflict between these two populations. European fishermen drying cod on the craggy Newfoundland shores in the sixteenth century were challenged by local Native populations. More recently, newcomer protest over the subsistence use of fish and game animals—whether those animals be whales in the Pacific Northwest, eels in the Maritimes, or deer somewhere in the Great Lakes region—demonstrates that such conflict has in no way evaporated. In Hunters at the Margin, John Sandlos has provided a capable, scholarly, and most readable assessment of the historic conflict between Native people and state wildlife managers in Canada's Northwest Territories in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
