Combining archaeological, botanical, and historical research, together with first-hand accounts provided by Gitselasu knowledge holders, this book critically assesses and debunks settler colonial narratives of a wild and untouched landscape in northwestern British Columbia.

Augmenting these discussions is a vividly illustrated guide to the plants that grow in the region. From the middle Skeena River to the coast, along creek beds, and into alpine meadows, Gitselasu continue to thrive, representing one of the oldest and longest-enduring Ts'msyen Nations.
