From the Land documents clothing made by the Dene, the Athapaskan-speaking peoples of Canada's Northwest Territories, during a period that extends from the late eighteenth century to the present day. Information has been gleaned from a variety of sources, including the writings of traders, explorers, and missionaries, Native Oral traditions, twentieth-century studies by anthropologists, and recent publications by Dene individuals and groups. Excerpts from a recent community-based project sponsored by the Canadian Museum of Civilization (CMC), are interwoven with the text. From The Land contains a wealth of visual material, from early sketches and paintings to twentieth-century photographs, pattern drawings of important garment styles, and illustrations of clothing artifacts from the CMC and other collections.
