Mind's Eye

Stories from Whapmagoostui

Susan Marshall (Editor), Emily Masty (Editor)

Based on over two decades of extensive interviews, Mind’s Eye documents the stories told by eighteen Cree elders in Whapmagoostui. From testimonies about battles with the Inuit and early contact with Europeans, to simple descriptions of playing games and making caribou-skin coats, these stories record the history of the James Bay Cree.
