Scope and content

The fonds consists of the transcript of the unpublished novel <em>La grande épinettière. Récit du Nord-Ouest canadien</em>, by Alex Michelet, and four b&w photographs taken on the trail to La Calmette and at the family farm in Alberta. The novel depicts the life of a young teacher who establishes herself in a small community at Grande Coulée (today, Big Coulee) at the beginning of the Twentieth century and the life of French homesteaders in Alberta.
