Description
A potent symbol and practice of Indigenous cultures and traditions, the canoe has also been adopted to assert conservation ideals, feminist empowerment, citizenship, and multicultural goals. Documenting these various uses, this book asserts that the canoe is not merely a matter of leisure; it is folded into many facets of our political life.
