Customer Reviews

informative, easy to read, free flowing text, well written

I found this book easy to read. Sometimes history seems stuffy and hard to digest. This book brings the history of early Native people to life. It's easy to follow the dates and provides a somewhat grassroots feel to the subject. The Meeting Place tells of the unique heritage of Native Canadians and why they populate the urban centre of Toronto so profusely. The background information on noted Toronto residents adds to the validation of the Native people living in such a metropolitan area. This book is also a legacy for urban Aboriginals that gives them pride in who they are. This book could easily be included in scholastic liturature, to bring credibility to Native people, from all walks of life and economic background.
