Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Curious about the previous inhabitants of the lake community where her family has vacationed for over one hundred years, author Shelley OCallaghan starts researching and writing about the area. But what begins as a personal journey of one womans relationship to the land and her desire to uncover the history of her familys remote cabin, soon turns into an exploration and questioning of our rights as settlers upon a land that was inhabited long before we came. OCallaghans research discovers a depth to the history of the Valley that runs as deep as the 1000 metre lake. She discovers her grandfathers intriguing connection with the First Nations chief whose ancestry goes back to the earliest recorded history at the lake, and her grandmothers attendance at a school where First Nations girls were taught servitude instead of knowledge. Through the summer of her research, she shares her discoveries with her six grandchildren as they set off on expeditions that make the past come alive. Together they find the headstone of an American scout with the 1858 International Boundary Commission Survey, a 1916 silver mine set up by Chief Sepass, and remnants of the original Indian Trail. They learn about trapper and prospector Charlie Lindeman, who introduced her grandfather to the lake in the early 1920s, and rescued her mother and grandmother from a fire that engulfed the lake in the 1930s. Together with her grandchildren they consider the impact of the legacy of white settlement in the areawhat is received from the past and what is given to the future. And as they reflect on the essence of a summer cabin, a place that brings family together and that nourishes the soul with its solitude and beauty, they gain a new perspective on the inevitable nature of change and privilege.
