Abstract
In the western interior of Canada, the pre-confederation period was one of relative peace between Indians and Europeans. Nonetheless, it was a time of rapid cultural transformations for the Indians as they adjusted to changing environmental and economic conditions. This book examines these conditions, and the responses which various Indian groups made to them, from the perspectives of anthropology, ecology, economics, and history. -- From back cover

Abstract
The Indian cultures that once flourished in the Pacific Northwest left a magnificent legacy. Now, a distinguished photographer has sought out British Columbia's native artists in their own places, met them informally and recorded their rediscovery of the old skills. In over 200 perceptive photographs, Ulli Steltzer has captured ninety-three dedicated men and women as they carve silver, wood and argillite; prepare wood for weaving and knitting; dig roots and gather grasses for their baskets. There are glimpses of their studios, their homes, the countryside; and their words, to, are recorded. -- From back cover
