In this episode of the History Slam, Sean Graham talk with Catherine Marie Gilbert, author of A Journey Back to Nature: A History of Strathcona National Park. They talk about the discovery of new photos of the park, how they were useful in writing the book, and the initial idea of Strathcona as ‘Banff West.’ They also chat about tourism as natural exploitation, the national resources in the park, and Strathcona (and parks in general) as part of Canada’s colonial project.
