The Village of Hiawatha

• The Village of Hiawatha is a wonderful telling of the history of Hiawatha. 
• The Hiawatha Book Committee has done a phenomenal job of giving their community a voice, and telling these stories with the respect and love they so deserve.
• Overall, The Village of Hiawatha is a beautiful and important contribution to the much-needed resurgence and rejuvenation of the Mississauga Anishinaabeg.  
• Like the restoration of the wild rice beds that is vital work today, this historic survey charts the return of cultural pride, and should be required reading for all those seeking to become informed on regional First Nations history and traditions.  

• The award-winning book The Village of Hiawatha  is available from The Old Railroad Stop Gift Shop at Hiawatha First Nation.

The author of this book is Heather Y. Shpuniarsky
