By Press Staff | Date: June 24, 2022

Hetxw'ms Gyetxw (Brett D. Huson) is from the Gitxsan Nation of the Northwest Interior of British Columbia, Canada. Growing up in this strong matrilineal society, Brett developed a passion for the culture, land, and politics of his people, and a desire to share their knowledge and stories. Author of the Mothers of Xsan series, Brett shares with readers the importance of environmental balance and a cultural knowledge that spans thousands of years.

Huson eloquently conveys the fragile interconnectedness of the natural world and the moral imperative to protect it.
