Description

A vital collection of writings about First Nations people and culture as it existed on the inland coast of the Depression-era Pacific Northwest and originally published in the pages of Victoria’s oldest newspaper, The Daily Colonist, the seventy stories included here are the result of a unique collaboration between a middle-aged reporter, Beryl Cryer, of upper-class British ancestry, and well-known Hul’qumi’num’-speaking cultural authorities eager to have their stories told and published.
