The collected writings of Louis Riel Pt 2 (Full Audiobook)

Louis Riel (1844-1885), a Métis leader and founder of Manitoba, had his works compiled in The Collected Writings of Louis Riel / Les Écrits complets de Louis Riel, published in 1985 by the University of Alberta Press, edited by George F.G. Stanley and others. This five-volume set spans his life from 1861 to his execution in 1885 for high treason. It includes three volumes of letters, diaries, and prose (1861-1875, 1875-1884, 1884-1885), a volume of poetry, and a reference volume with a chronology and biographical index. Written in English and French, it captures Riel’s political thought, spiritual reflections, and advocacy for Métis rights during the Red River and Northwest Rebellions, offering an essential resource for understanding his complex legacy in Canadian history.
