IN THIS ISSUE
When you think about North Dakota’s ethnic heritage, French may not come to mind right away. But it should! The French explorers and early traders were among the first white settlers in the state. Add that to the Metis culture that combines the richness of both the American Indians and the French, and it’s a compelling story!
