97 pages. Illustrated in black and white. "I was asked to do a booklet for the opening of the Cape Mudge Museum pertaining to the improsonments and the confiscation of our masks, coppers, etc. For many years I have had in my possession tape recordings of the imprisonments and other historical data. It was with this information and other information acquired through research that the booklet was started. We soon realized that a booklet would not be sufficient to tell our history and it had to be told in order to show why our Ba-sah (potlatch) was outlawed. This book therefore, is just a memorial to those who gave so much of themselves in preserving our history before the coming of the white man and what happened after their arrival." - from introduction.
