Lindley tells the stories that recount and reflect Salish culture, history, and historical consciousness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“[The voice of] Lottie Lindley, full of both personal character and the reserved and patient wisdom of the elder, comes through the transcriptions clearly, movingly, and with cumulative power.”—Ursula K.

At once a carefully annotated documentation of the Okanagan language as well as a record of history, culture, and land, the book is a testament to the power of narrative in Okanagan and a wonderful gift to future generations.”—Ewa Czaykowska-Higgins, associate professor of linguistics at the University of Victoria\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e“John Lyon has changed the mold somewhat in providing complete Nsyílxcen texts on a separate page, preceding the linguistic explanations. This gives advanced learners and teachers an invaluable resource: a wealth of written literature that can be read, enjoyed, and taught from.”—Michele K.
