Strange Empire by Joseph Kinsey Howard
Looking for something to read this holiday season? Trying to find the right book for the Michif relative you know just can't resist a good read?
Get Strange Empire, Thank me later, k.

Examining Hill57 residents is a Pemmican Pouch of knowledge!
Below is the death certificate of John Romell LaPierre. He is born at St. Peter's Mission during the time Louis Riel was teaching in Montana. He is documented as a resident of #Hill57 at the time of his death, age 73.

I've returned to this #Hill57 thread.
Hill 57 appears on the 1940 U.S. Census of Great Falls from pg. 47-52/60. The area encompasses the confluence of Sun River into the Missouri & the land North and west of the confluence. The School District is a midpoint between Hill 57 and the Missouri.

This #NDTR long weekend, I've examined #NewFrance and the #Indigenous allies opposing English invaders. In particular Ensign, Jean Baptiste Levrault de Langis; or "Langy" to his Royal Empire Loyalist enemies.
