Book excerpt: In true Yukon-style storytelling, George Balmer captures the "mostly true and often humourous adventures" of his younger years as a government official in the Yukon in the '70s and '80s. In over thirty funny and shocking tales, George's problems are as creative and unusual as the solutions. During a solo stint in a fire tower, George accidentally starts a fire of his own.

Download or read book People of the Lakes written by Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation and published by University of Alberta. This book was released on 2010-01-12 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people have a mental picture of the Canadian north that juxtaposes beauty with harshness. For the Van Tat Gwich'in, the northern Yukon is home, with a living history passed on from Elders to youth. This book consists of oral accounts that the Elders have been recording for 50 years, representing more than 150 years of their history, all meticulously translated from Gwich'in. Yet this is more than a gathering of history; collaborator Shirleen Smith provides context for the stories, whether they are focused on an individual or international politics. Anthropologists, folklorists, ethnohistorians, political scientists, economists, Indigenous Peoples, and readers interested in Canada's northernmost regions will find much to fascinate them.
