Description:
The historiography of the pre-1870 West generally views the Catholic missions as a factor of funadmental importance in shaping the unique culture of the French-speaking native people in the Red River area. This thesis argues that the Catholic missionaries aimed at the complete transformation of aboriginal society just as much as their Protestant counterparts.
