Negotiating the Numbered Treaties:
An Intellectual and Political Biography of Alexander Morris
Robert J. Talbot

► Alexander Morris viewed the treaties with prairie Indians as more than mere legal documents; they were the basis for a new reciprocal relationship between First Nations and the federal government.
