Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: That is how John Young described his remarkable account of his family in turn of the century Canada, a collection of stories that the modern reader can only marvel at. Some of the stories were told to him by his father, but most had to do with a period of his life that he remembered vividly. He told these stories to his children and to his friends to entertain them. When he was bedridden by heart disease, he began to set them down using a pencil and a variety of lined notebooks. Shortly after writing the last story, he died. His son carried the manuscript around for almost fifty years, until a visit to the family farm inspired him to edit the stories for publication.

Download or read book My Father s Smokehouse written by Vivian Faith Prescott and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filled with stories of family, food, and culture, and interwoven with personal recipes and photographs taken by the author, My Father's Smokehouse folds the reader into a beautiful island landscape. "Prescott emphasizes the importance of learning the traditional values of where one lives, gratitude for what the land and sea provide, and the responsibility to share with community." —Anchorage Daily News "[Prescott’s] book is filled with traditions, memories and stories surrounding Southeast Alaska life, including a family’s perseverance, the wisdom of Sámi and Tlingit cultures, and respect for elders and their knowledge of the culture. The smokehouse at the fish camp is named after her father." —Wrangell Sentinel The smokehouse at Mickey's Fishcamp holds more than fish. It is filled with traditions, memories, and stories of a thriving Southeast Alaskan life—of a family's perseverance, of the wisdom of Sámi and Tlingit cultures, and of respect for Elders and their knowledge of the natural world. Mickey's Fishcamp is named after three generations of Prescott fishermen who commercially fished the waters of the Inside Passage, and is located near one of the oldest Tlingit settlements in Wrangell, Alaska. Here, next to the rainforest and sea, author Vivian Faith Prescott has found her place in the world. She is a student and teacher of the natural environment—harvesting spruce tips, berries, sea lettuce, and goose tongue and processing salmon, halibut, and hooligan—who combines traditional practices with modern knowledge. Heartwarming and introspective, My Father's Smokehouse tells one woman's stories of Traditional Knowledge that is learned and passed on, from one generation to the next.

The adventures of the two will have you turning pages quickly to see what happens next. Enter into a world of laughter, mystery, tears, and faith. Selena had a different idea. She grabbed Katie by her hand, and they headed out the back door. "Come on, Katie. Let's see what is going on!" "Selena, are you crazy? I know you do crazy things, but we don't know who is out there." Against her better judgment, Katie headed out the back door to follow Selena, and they crouched low going around the front corner of the store. Tied to the post was Spirit, who was pulling hard to get free. He looked white-eyed and nervous with all the commotion going on. I don't think it's a good idea to be out here," Katie said. "Well go back in. I'm going to get Spirit before a stray bullet hits him." Yanking on Selena's arm, Katie looked right in the eyes, "You are going to get yourself shot. Your pa will tan your hide if you go out there." It didn't stop Selena. She shook Katie's hand off and crouched down, creeping toward her horse. Katie looked at her, making the sign of the cross, and took a step out. But then she heard a gunshot and retreated back to safety.

Download or read book Living on the Edge written by David E. Friesen and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2018-10-15 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: --A fresh new look at adventure, survival and faith-- from a recipient of the Explorers Club Award. Adventure is in his blood. He has the explorer’s curiosity, the will to survive, and the faith to persevere. An engaging writing style, with at times, humorous observations, animates his adventures in remote landscapes in Canada. Through David Friesen’s archaeological and teaching projects, he discovered the wonders of the people, wildlife and landscapes of the far northern wilderness and, at the same time, the inner spirit that drives him. Vivid descriptions of strange (to him) cuisine (such as bear meat and miserak) and innovative recipes (lichen shrimp soup) season many stories. David’s boundless curiosity, evolving relationships with First Nations leaders, and personal stamina led him to persist in the building of a pithouse in northern British Columbia to replicate the dwellings of early Ulkatcho Carrier people. Living in the pithouse over several winters, he keenly observed the wildlife and scenery around him, and survived by living off the land. His solitary existence drew inspiration from the landscape, spiritual songs, scripture passages and his own poetic expressions. In the Arctic, he encountered a rugged lifestyle as he taught map and compass skills to Inuit youth, learning traditional navigational skills along the way. A perilous kayaking trip along the British Columbia north coast punctuated a three month trip, facing a fierce storm and many other challenges.
