Experiences shared by the firsthand accounts of Elders and settlers are supplemented with personal photographs and family recipes creating a deep connection to both the text and the community. Recipes such as Theresa Auger's "Bachelor Bannock" allow the reader to interact with a text on an extra-textual level as more intimate details of the community are brought out of the text and into the reader's kitchen.
