This book begins as a search for contectedness, an exploration of our place in the “New World.” Alberta seems young, brash, vibrant. In fact, it is almost as old as time. It is we who are new to it. A few among us can claim, “I have been here since the world began,” but most have family histories barley a century old in this part of the world. We might prize the land, appreciate its beauty, treasure its many moods. But how can we feel rooted if we do not truly understand it? This book was written on this premise: if we can begin to comprehend Alberta’s long history, we might see the landscape with new eyes. Then, and only then, might we find our place in this uncommonly beautiful part of the world.
