Description: Mildred Valley Thornton had an abiding passion which she pursued ì with almost missionary fervour throughout her life -- the ì preservation of Canada's Native culture. For over fifty years she ì dedicated herself to that purpose through the medium of her ì paintings, writings and lectures. During the course of her ì career, Mildred not only painted the portraits of many prominent ì and historical Native Canadians, but she assembled an ì accompanying catalogue of anecdotes, folklore and legends, which ì today provide a unique chronicle of a vanished age. This ì publication is a collection of both Thornton's colourful ì portraits and the fascinating story behind each one.
