It's the day of the first salmon ceremony, and P'ésk'a is
excited to celebrate. His community, the Sts'ailes people, give
thanks to the river and the salmon it brings by commemorating the
first salmon of the season. Framed as an exploration of what life was
like one thousand years ago, P'ésk'a and the First Salmon Ceremony
describes the customs of the Sts'ailes people, an indigenous group
who have lived on the Harrison River in British Columbia for the last
10,000 years. An introductory letter from Chief William Charlie, an
illustrated afterword, and a glossary are included.
