Review:
Miggs Wynne Morris was born in North Wales and arrived in Canada in 1963. Since then she has lived in many places, including Abbotsford, BC Fort Franklin, NWT Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Churchill, Manitoba and London, Ontario. She has been a teacher, a Language Arts Consultant, a viceprincipal, and a principal of a specialized school for disturbed children. A welltravelled woman who has had many adventures and who admits to hitchhiking in the 1960s, Morris leads a quieter life (for the time being) in rural southern Ontario.
"Miggs Wynne Morris's book "Return to the Drum is a rarity among writings about Canada's North."

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This is a story about survival -- the survival of a people and their way of life. Focusing on the history of the Sahtuot'ine of Great Bear Lake and the struggles that follow their first encounters with Euro-Canadians in the 1800s, Miggs Morris weaves together their story with her own. As a young teacher in 1965, she accepts a position to live and teach in a tiny, isolated community in what was known at the time as Fort Franklin in the Northwest Territories. The reader will learn, as the author did, to care about these hardworking and proud people. The author's memories of her earlier experiences in this community are balanced with an account of her return trip to what is now called Deline.
