NWT-based Northern Quill Publishing says it is releasing a new, expanded edition of a book about a rugged portage leading into the territory’s barrenlands.
In a news release, the publisher said Kahaɂa Tuwé: The Gateway to the Barren Lands is an updated version of a book released in 2010 as Pike’s Portage: Stories of a Distinguished Place.
The book “explores the deep cultural, historical, and geographic significance of Kahaɂa Tuwé, known to many as Pike’s Portage,” Northern Quill stated.
“It has served as a vital cultural crossroads, a gateway to the Barren Lands, and a place of enduring meaning for Indigenous peoples, travellers and northern communities.
