Autorenporträt
Theresa Gowanlock and Theresa Delaney were both survivors of a pivotal and harrowing period in Canadian history, and co-authors of Two Months in the Camp of Big Bear, a memoir detailing their captivity in the Cree camp of Big Bear. The two women were part of a group of settlers who were taken by Big Bear's Cree band during a period of conflict and unrest between Indigenous peoples and Western settlers. Theresa Gowanlock was traveling with her husband and other settlers when they were captured. Theresa Delaney was also among those taken. Together, the women endured the hardships of captivity, navigating the complex cultural and social challenges of their situation. Their memoir offers a first-hand account of their time in the Cree camp, focusing on themes of survival, cultural interaction, and personal resilience. The book provides a personal, human perspective on the clash of cultures and the struggles faced by both settlers and Indigenous peoples. Through their experiences, Gowanlock and Delaney reflect on the strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity, offering valuable insights into this significant moment in Canadian history.
