Cole Harris: Geographer of Canada.

Richard Colebrook (Cole) Harris was born in Vancouver on the 4 SP th sp of July, 1936. Early in the 1990s, however, Cole published a flurry of new essays informed by social theory in I BC Studies i , I Ethnohistory i , and I The Canadian Geographer i (Galois & Harris, [11]; Harris, [24], [26], [27]). Cole's father, Richard (Dick) Harris, was a high school teacher, and his mother, Ellen (nee Code) Harris, a CBC radio show host. Conscious of the importance of his topic and aware that his arguments would land in the middle of often-fraught debate and litigation (see Harris, [33]), Cole worked intensely to turn his McLean lectures into the large, dense book that entered the world as I Making native space i (Harris, [29]) after his formal retirement.
