The book contains photographs and details on over 100 “Grandmothers,” as Gregory refers to them. Gregory has repatriated Métis artifacts from across the world, from coast to coast in Canada, to England and Scotland, bringing the grandmothers home, and is sharing these grandmothers with everyone through this beautiful book. This resource also contains a historical overview by Sherry Farrell Racette. Join Gregory and friends to hear more about how this publication came to be and why he feels the grandmothers must come home.
