| Reference | Wilderness Outpost | "Wilderness Outpost" is "the Fort Vermilion Memoir of Mary B. Lawrence 1898-1907." Mary (Molly) Lawrence was the wife of Fred S. Lawrence, whose father Erastus in 1879 had established the Irene Training School, "the first genuine attempt by Euro-Canadians to instruct people of the First Nations in the Peace River Country in the ways of farming." After Fred and Molly were married in 1898, they journeyed up to Fort Vermilion, where Fred would become one of the most publicized promoters of the Peace River Country. During her nine year stay in Fort Vermilion, May kept notes on people, places, events and circumstances which she later included in her memoir: "Keewaitin: God of the North Wind" and which has now been edited and republished as "Wilderness Outpost". "The manuscript provides a vivid account of life at Fort Vermilion during this time, and reveals much about the interaction of Euro-Canadian settlers, missionaries, traders and others with the resident Metis, Cree and Beaver people. The work also discloses aspects of daily life in the North that are often over-looked in the published accounts of visitors." | 2008 | Mary B.
