Critics Review
This book is a true gift that is rich in philosophy, story, and practical wisdom - expressing a powerful message about the meaning of care, protection, and joy in relation to our lands. * Kyle Whyte, University of Michigan, USA *
Richmond, Coombes, and Louis have produced a book that is both nuanced and profound. It will take a prominent place in the literature of Indigenous geographies and serve as a resource for cultural geography and research methods courses as well as an introduction for scholars not yet familiar with Indigenous cultures and experiences. * Journal of Cultural Geography *
