This book explores the Fur Trade from an Ojibwe perspective, offering insights into Ojibwe life, kinship and clan systems, technologies, and puts Ojibwe women back at the heart of this remarkable era. The fur trade was the first global trading system, and the Ojibwe people were key players in a historical period that has shaped the geography, social structures, and history of Minnesota, and the nation. More than 800 pen and ink drawings, connecting historical records and art, oral traditions, Western and Indigenous scholarship, family history, and contemporary artisans, tell this important story. End notes and bibliography included. Text is black and white, hardcover 200 pages. Estimated release date: April 30th, 2024.

2023 THUNDERBIRD REVIEW, Issue 11 - an art and literary anthology of local writers and artists produced by Fond du Lac Tribal & Community College.

The 10th anniversary edition of The Thunderbird Review, paperback. A Note from the Editorial Staff: We hope you enjoy the 2022 issue of The Thunderbird Review, an art and literary anthology produced by Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College. This issue is special to us and to FDLTCC as it marks the journal's 10th anniversary. Poet and former faculty member Jan Chronister started The Thunderbird Review to give students and area writers an opportunity to share their work with the community. Her vision lives on in this edition. We received many submissions from students and professional writers alike, from new contributors to those we have proudly published in the past. Some highlights of this edition are our own Rick Gresczyk's haikus from a project he worked on during the pandemic: a comic that teaches about Ojibwe history by renowned artist Carl Gawboy: beautiful work by our students Brianna Reynolds, Bradley Hoder, and Naomi Joy Nance: and stunning writing from area writers Sheila Packa, Jayson Iwen, and Jeanette Marie Cox. We hope you enjoy reading their writing and savoring their art as much as we did. If you would like to help with the next issue of The Thunderbird Review, please let us know. We welcome students as well as members of the community. Questions or comments can be directed to [email protected] Sincerely, The Editorial Staff of The Thunderbird Review
