The Land Our Fathers Saw: A Pictorial History By E.F. Hagell

By Wilma Wood

Book Overview

The Land Our Fathers Saw reveals the Hagell Heritage Collection held by the Galt Museum and Archives in the City of Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada. In 1960, upon the request of the Lethbridge Historical Society, the City purchased the collection from Hagell to illustrate the prairie conditions of the settlers who homesteaded in southern Alberta in the early 1900s.

It is the third book in a series of three which has been written by the author about the southern Alberta artist. Hagell's art is in the western tradition of Fredric Remington and Charles Russell. The 68 ink and crayon drawings present his view of the prairie landscape from the 1800s to the 1950s.
