Mary Tasi and Wade Baker present their journey of cultural research and their book The Hidden Journals. The book was presented to the Victoria Legislature for excellence in primary source research, bringing new perspectives to history. Through primary archival research and oral indigenous knowledge, the lost narratives of the Captain Vancouver era are highlighted through an indigenous perspective.
