Grand Portage National Monument Historic Documents Study, August 2004.

摘要

As a portage, company headquarters, transshipment point, and trading post, Grand Portage has had a rich and important history. A great deal of this history has been the subject of research over the years in a variety of reports, books, and articles. Archives, libraries, and other repositories have been combed for new information that would reveal aspects of the history of the place. It is the purpose of this report to identify and provide detailed descriptions of many of the archival collections in North America that contain material relating to Grand Portage and to take stock of the rich variety available on the history of Grand Portage. It is also the purpose of this study to consider what new materials may be available for new research on the place.
