    Summary: 
    This anthology of Aboriginal writings from Manitoba takes readers back through the millennia and forward to the present day. Manitowapow is a rich collection of more than 125 works of stories, poetry, nonfiction, and speeches featuring some of Canada's best-known writers and luminaries as well as local storytellers from far-reaching Manitoba communities.
    Historical writings, from important figures such as Louis Riel, Gabriel Dumont, and Chief Peguis, to newly discovered pieces from lessor known but compelling storytellers, such as Kuskapatchees; Literary writing by eminent Aboriginal writers, such as Tomson Highway, Beatrice Mosionier, Duncan Mercredi, Rosanna Deerchild; Nonfiction and political writing from contemporary Aboriginal leaders such as Phil Fontaine, David Courchene, and Justice Murray Sinclair; Anishinaabe, Cree, Dene, Inuit, Metis, and Sioux writers from Manitoba.
