As the Hudson's Bay Company was the one permanent European presence during the period, this ethnohistorical study makes extensive use of unpublished HBC papers. The authors also examine such issues as the rise of a homeguard population at the trading posts, the trading captain system, the development of hamily hunting territories, and the issue of dependence and interdependence. Partners in Furs provides new insight and makes a significant contribution to current scholarly inquiry into the impact of the fur trade on the native populations.Fur tradeHistoryJames Bay RegionIndians of North AmericaHistoryTrappingJames Bay RegionBusiness & EconomicsHILCCIndustriesHILCCFur tradeHistoryIndians of North AmericaHistoryTrappingBusiness & EconomicsIndustries380.1/456753/0971314Francis Daniel984325Morantz Toby ElainePQKBBOOK996247892803316Partners in furs : a history of the fur trade in eastern James Bay, 1600-18702306233UNISA
