Mistehay Sakahegan – The Great Lake by Frances Russell
“The Beauty and the Treachery of Lake Winnipeg”
Lake Winnipeg is truly, as the Cree termed it, Mistehay Sakahegan – The Great Lake. Much larger than Lake Ontario, the hub of North America's heartland, Manitoba's great lake helped determine the shape of Canada. And throughout its long history, few have been unaffected by its beauty and its treachery.
This beautiful illustrated book begins with the geology of Manitoba's great lake and traces its fascinating history through the lives and legends of its people, from the first humans to see its enormous
glacial ancestors to the thousands who vacation about its shores every year.
