Oowikapun: How the Gospel Reached the Nelson River Indians

by Egerton Ryerson Young

This book is a fascinating account of the early Christian missionaries who ventured into the wilds of western Canada to bring the Gospel to the indigenous people. It tells the story of Oowikapun, a young Cree man who became the first Christian convert among his people. Full of adventures and encounters with wildlife, this book is a window into a little-known chapter of Canadian history.
