Who was George Keusch? An unemployed stone carver? An eccentric artist? A man who was fascinated with native peoples and their way of life? Perhaps all of these is what led him to move to Walpole Island and live among the Ojibwe. Fortunately for us, he took with him a sketchbook to record what he saw there as well as replicating works of other artists. Inside this book for your enjoyment is:

‣ More than 80 paintings and drawings
‣ George’s pictograph charts with nearly 200 symbols and their meanings
‣ Stories, poems, and prayers as recorded by George
‣ Historical references and explanations for some of George’s work
‣ Commentary from George’s great-great-nephew, Rafe Barber
