For Max Braithwaite, the real Ontario is a combination of its history, its people and its land, and after thirty years of exploration and personal experience, he writes eloquently of what the province is and how it got that way.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Illustrated by Tait, Douglas (illustrator). First Edition. "The Northwest Coast Indians have been written about many times, but perhaps never as clearly or as concisely as in this beautifully illustrated introduction to the way of life of the seven tribes that inhabited the coast from the Columbia River to Alaska. The names Haida, Nootka, Tlingit and Kwakiutl suggest huge totems, whale hunts and potlatches to many people, but there was much more to this flourishing culture. This is a book for everyone in which both children and their parents will find answers to their questions and will be able to share some of the rich life of an amazing people." - dust jacket. 32 pages. Index. Forty black and white drawings. Four maps. Tight and unmarked with average wear. Price-clipped dust jacket now preserved in glossy new archival-grade Brodart. A sound copy.; Illustrations; 4to.
