Atlases & Maps

A map of the North-West Territories and brief story focusing on the Districts of Saskatchewan and Assiniboia in 1885. Below the map is a brief explanation of places in relation to the Northwest Resistance. The map was apparently published shortly before the Battle of Batoche as it reports "Middelton's column is now on the east bank of the south branch of the Saskatchewan, moving from Clark's Crossing to Batoche, where the enemy is reported to be entrenched in force."
