Description

Wawahte: Indian Residential Schools recounts the life experiences of three Indian residential school survivors, as told to Kingston author Robert Wells, a retired Ontario Conservation Officer. Robert Wells made a promise to an Elder in his childhood that one day he would tell the stories of his three friends Esther Faries, Bunny Galvin and Stanley Stephens and after 14 months of research and interviews this self-published book was released in 2012. The unedited personal accounts reflect the author's commitment to his promise. The title, Wawahte, meaning Northern Lights in the Cree language presents the story of three survivors from their perspectives.
