Half-breed

Campbell, Maria 1940- (Author).

Summary: "One of the "Road Allowance People," Maria was a strong and sensitive child who lived in a community robbed of its pride and dignity by the surrounding white world. At 15, she tried in vain to escape by marrying a white man only to find herself trapped in the slums of Vancouver -- a drug addict, prone to suicide, close to death. But she survived, inspired by her Cree great-grandmother, Cheechum, who gave her confidence in herself and her people. Maria Campbell offers us an understanding of the Métis people and of the racism and hatred they face." --back cover
