In my Time...

I found this book to be very interesting. Arranged Marriages, lots of children, lots ofpain. It seems like she worked 18 hours a day 7 days a week.I like when she painted the Haida boat. MeetingPierre Trudeau and the Queen of England.I would like to have lived in that era, except forthe health issues. I didnt know the earlier Indians were so superstitous!
