Village of the Small Houses: A Memoir of Sorts Ian Ferguson

Book DescriptionIn 1959, just one step ahead of the law, Ian Ferguson"s parents left the sophisticated big-city life of Edmonton for Fort Vermilion - once a fur-trapping frontier town, now a remote aboriginal settlement in northernmost Alberta. There, Ian and his six brothers and sisters grew up without indoor plumbing, electricity, central heating, or even a radio. Beginning with the dramatic events surrounding his birth (including a paddlewheel ferry heading for destruction, a legendary rowboat trip, and a life-and-death race against time), the richly recalled events of Ferguson"s life and a vivid array of characters make for a taut and appealingly idiosyncratic tale.
