Description
In Northerners, a collection of profiles of people in the former Northwest Territories, Douglas Holmes paints a picture of the North that is as informative as it is entertaining.
There are church leaders like Ren Fumoleau and Benjamin Arreak, native leaders like Cece McCauley and Stephen Kakfwi, politicians like Nick Sibbetson, Lynda Sorensen and Peter Ittinuar, artists like David Ruben Piqtoukun, and many others.
First published in 1989, Northerners illuminates the lives of men and women who made the modern North.
