From her start as a child of store owners in a remote First Nations community to a Master of Social Work at the University of Manitoba, Annette Alix Roussin has walked a path of self-determination. Post-secondary education allowed her to research and study the effects of colonization and supported her process of understanding about where she came from and what had occurred for her in relation to colonization.Annette has created a work that acknowledges the generational effects of colonization on Indigenous Peoples' mental health and well-being. This work is supported by the research of other Indigenous authors along with personal accounts of how colonization affected Annette's self-esteem and development. Annette shares her own story of coming to understand her culture and heal from the pain of colonialism, and readers are invited to respond to prompts in journal spaces throughout the book.This memoir journal is created as sacred space for readers to reflect on colonization and how they self-identify as an Indigenous person and as a Canadian citizen. It is also for non-Indigenous readers to engage with the story and reflect on what they think and feel about colonialism and how they self-identify in their own life.

Highmoor Tales is a bit like a well-kept diary of the author's life. John McCartney grew up in Ireland, in Derry, and had both an urban and rural childhood, with fields and rivers never far away. Into adulthood, we read stories of his coming of age, falling in love, fatherhood and beautifully crafted anecdotes from his rich life up to the present day. It is at times amusing, at times serious and at times dramatic, as in the story, 'Awash'. It recalls events like they happened yesterday, some mere snippets of a day - be that about fishing or incidental happenings - and stories that serve to bring alive a different time, a time in some ways unrecognisable today but in other ways showing how little has changed. A couple of the stories are aimed at children.
