River Child by Eleanor Millard
River Child is a story of healing and resilience, wrapped in the warmth and humour of Northern cultures. It is a collection of nineteen linked short stories about three generations set in the Yukon's Klondike, famous for its Gold Rush.
The book reveals the personal and social conflicts experienced by Eliza, a part First Nations woman and her daughter Selena, whom Eliza leaves to be cared for by her own father, a white man.
