Review of Mapping My Way Home: A Gitxsan History

from Richard Overstall

This book records a unique journey through the still unresolved clash of aboriginal and settler societies in Canada. Both intensely personal and meticulously researched, it expertly guides the reader through the physical and cultural landscapes over which the ferment plays out.

For more than 30 years, Richard Overstall has been a researcher, negotiator and lawyer with an interest in indigenous governance in the areas of land and resources. He has helped design programs in restorative justice, wildlife habitat mapping and ecosystem-based territory management.
