Book Review: Award-winning author John Boessenecker has written several books about Old West outlaws and lawmen. His recent book Wildcat is the well-researched story of bandit Pearl Hart, born Lillie Davy in Lindsay, Ontario.
Book Review: Author Debra Komar is a practising forensic anthropologist, and this is an engrossing book that weaves historical records into a fascinating story. Her research shows how the suspect’s social status afforded him preferential treatment from both the legal system and the press.
Book review: Métis Matriarchs sets itself firmly within the parameters of social history, as an edited collection of “quantitative case studies” of Métis women that follow a biographical approach.
