Keepers of the Game: Indian-Animal Relationships and the Fur Trade Paperback - 1982
by Calvin Martin; Introduction by Nancy Lurie
First line
AS THE DRIVE for furs expanded and gathered momentum in seventeenth-century Eastern Canada, complaints of beaver extermination became correspondingly more frequent and alarming.
From the rear cover
"A brilliant book which deals with the complex relationship between American Indians and animals, as it changed through time. Martin argues that an aboriginal ecosystem . . . was destroyed by 'European disease, Christianity and the fur trade, ' and the symbiosis which had existed between hunters and their game turned into an adversary relationship."--New Republic "The nature of the relationship between Indian and animal, he argues, was essentially a contract of mutual obligation and courtesy. When European epidemic disease began to ravage them, destroying perhaps 90 percent of the native population, Indians took it to be a 'conspiracy' by game animals against them. When their own medicine men were unable to cure these diseases, the stage was set for a 'war of retaliation'--the sacred agreement with the Keepers of the Game having been broken. . . . [T]here is a fine and fair mind at work here."--Harper's "The clarity, directness and originality of this small book should. . . . earn it many readers who will wonder at the tangled web of the living world and the variousness of the human mind."--Scientific American
