Long before vacationers discovered BC’s Sunshine Coast, the
Sliammon, a Coast Salish people, called the region home. In this
remarkable book, Sliammon elder Elsie Paul collaborates with a
scholar, Paige Raibmon, and her granddaughter, Harmony Johnson, to
tell her life story and the history of her people, in her own words
and storytelling style. Raised by her grandparents who took her on
their seasonal travels, Paul spent most of her childhood learning
Sliammon ways, teachings, and stories and is one of the last surviving
mother-tongue speakers of the Sliammon language. She shares this
traditional knowledge with future generations in Written as I Remember
It.
