Thinking about the readings
  McNickle

Write a research report giving your opinion about one aspect of life here before 1910 OR one insight in D’Arcy McNickle as a writer. Provide evidence for your viewpoint by quoting from at least three of the documents we’ve used in class: “Hard Riding,” “Flathead Railroad Treaty, 1882,” Clairmont v. U. S. (Supreme Court), and “Meat for God.” You may also quote from any documents you located doing family history research.

The report should be at least two paragraphs long, and each paragraph should be well-developed, unified, and coherent.

1. Start by writing down 2 quotes from each reading that seem in some way connected.
2. After you have all the quotes, read through them and figure out a way to explain the connection you see. Work this out in a first draft.
3. Revise your first draft, making it unified and coherence.
