Based on an event from Alfred Scow‘s childhood, with atmospheric illustrations by First Nations artist Darlene Gait, Spalding tells the story of a Kwakwa‘ka‘waku Nations family who defy the Indian Agent to hold an illegal potlatch ceremony. The afterword explains just how risky this would have been for the family.
