Untangling the varied strands that make up the Northern tapestry--its resourceful peoples, its awesome physical landscape, its political and economic agenda in the late 1980s--they portray in vivid colours a society struggling to cast off the chains of colonialism and define its own future.
The Modern North offers a sensitive assessment of the people and forces shaping the Yukon and Northwest Territories in the 1980s.
