L'occupation territoriale chez les amérindiens du Nord-ouest canadien au XIXe siècle selon Émile Petitot = Land occupancy by the Amerindians of the Canadian Northwest in the 19th century, according to...: R5-545/1980-PDF

"The first volume of this study presented a toponymic inventory and the information related to each of the place-names. Two annexes were part of the first volume, presenting respectively a lexemic index permitting one to read the toponymic inventory and a reproduction of Émile Petitot's geographical maps, which are the main important source of his toponymic data. This second volume presents an analysis of toponymic data and its legal implications. The study includes a cartographic presentation of the type of land use and occupancy of a specific territory by various native groups as perceived by one observer - Émile Petitot. Geoffrey S. Lester has prepared a text on the legal dimensions of place-names."--Preface, p. ii.
