In addition to a history of events, Indian-trader relationships, and trader competition, the editors synthesize data on a number of topics, including lists of resident traders in the villages, the time required to travel between the Assiniboine River posts and the villages, trade commodities, and rates of exchange for items such as beaver skins and horses. . . .
