The Identities of Marie Rose Delorme Smith by Doris Jeanne MacKinnon Book PDF Summary
Marie Rose Delorme Smith was a woman of French-Métis ancestry who was born during the fur trade era and who spent her adult years as a pioneer rancher in the Pincher Creek district of southern Alberta. The Identities of Marie Rose Delorme Smith examines how Marie Rose negotiates her identities--as mother, boarding house owner, homesteader, medicine woman, midwife, and writer--during the changing environment of the western plains during the late nineteenth century.
