The over 90 historical documents contained in Strange Visitors record the complicated relationship between Canada's Indigenous and non-Indigenous populations from 1876 to the present. Covering topics such as the Indian Act, the high Arctic relocation of 1953, and the conflict at Ipperwash, the selected sources inform readers on a wide range of topics and perspectives, drawing on letters, testimonies, speeches, transcripts, newspaper articles, and government records. In his thoughtful introduction, Keith D. Smith provides guidance on the unique challenges when dealing with Indigenous primary sources by highlighting the critical skill of "reading against the grain."

Each chapter includes an introduction and a list of discussion questions, and helpful background information is provided for each reading. Organized thematically into 15 chapters, the reader also contains a list of key figures, maps and images.
