A new edition of the groundbreaking 1959 publication created in collaboration with the Gitanyow Hereditary Chiefs. This beautiful new edition of the histories and laws of the Gitanyow (literally "people of the small/narrow place," once called the Kitwancool in settler accounts), as recounted to museum curator Wilson Duff in 1958, includes a new foreword by Gitanyow Hereditary Chiefs and updated photographs while preserving the original text. Until the mid-twentieth century, the village of Kitwancool (now Gitanyow) was only accessible to outsiders by trail.
