A girl called Echo

"Echo Desjardins just can't stop slipping back and forth in time. In Northwest Resistance, she travels to a period of turmoil. The bison are gone, settlers from the East are arriving daily, and the M?tis and First Nations of the Northwest face hunger and uncertainty as their traditional way of life is threatened. The Canadian government has ignored their petitions, but hope rises when Louis Riel returns to help. However, battles between Canadian forces and the M?tis and their allies lead to a defeat at Batoche. Through it all, Echo gains new perspectives about where she came from and what the future may hold"--Back cover.
