Loon: Memory, Meaning, and Reality in a Northern Dene Community
Henry S. Sharp
In August 1975, at Foxholm Lake on the reserve of the Chipewyan, the author and two members of the Mission Band encountered a loon. This book embarks on a narrative exploration of the Chipewyan culture that examines the nature of a reality within which wild animals are both persons and spirits.
