William D. Addison (Interviewer)

Canadian Parks Service

Oral history interview with the Rev. Philip Howard about his experiences working as a missionary in the Nahanni National Park region, Northwest Territories in the mid-1900s. The interview provides a different view of the Nahanni history: that of a protestant fundamentalist church trying to establish itself in Indian communities where Roman Catholicism was already deeply entrenched. Howard discusses the challenges he and his wife encountered: building log homes, learning the language (Slavey) and adjusting to the conditions and culture of the North.
