Abstract:
Examines how people reconstruct the past of a place from its material traces. This book focuses on three case studies of the Chilcotin plateau in British Columbia, where controversies in the mid-1990s allowed underlying stories to emerge. It is suitable for historians of various fields and areas.
Abstract:
By supplementing written records with non-written ones, "The Archive of Place" extends the span of conventional historical research and shows the profound contribution that environmental history can make. Historians of many fields and areas will be interested in its unique methodology.
