"Wilson Duff wrote more than he published," anthropologist Robin Ridington has noted, "and communicated to those around him more than he wrote." Duff was the first anthropologist to be fully employed by the provincial government of B.C. as its curator of anthropology at the provincial museum in Victoria (from 1950 to 1965). " (ABC Bookworld) The title of the book comes from a poem he wrote. The book is a testimonial to Duff's studies and to his love of the culture and art of the many aboriginal nations in British Columbia.
