Abstract

"Adrian K. Paton, curator of the South Saskatchewan Photo Museum, has been collecting photos for decades. In his book, Adrian showcases many of the historical images of Indigenous people that he has compiled over the years. Weaving the oral and the visual history together, he recounts stories told to him by his Indigenous friends and connects them to the photos chosen for this book."--Page [4] of cover.
