Summary:
This book is a history of the basketmaking tradition brought to Nova Scotia by the Black Refugees during the War of 1812. These escaping African American slaves were brought up from the Atlantic seaboard to freedom by the British Navy. The book features illustrated examples of work and construction techniques as the tradition is continued by their descendants in Nova Scotia today.
