This book tells a great deal about Indians and the discrimination against them. As one character said, "In some countries it's the Negroes, in others it's the Jews, in Canada it's the Indian." I always thought I was fair minded but I find myself thinking that there are dirty, drunken Indians. Since reading Return to the River I find myself looking at the Indians on the street and wondering what they are really like and how they think. One thing this book has made me do is really look at the Indians.
This review was written by me in February 1970 when I was still in high school. We had aboriginal Canadians living in our small town but there were none in high school at that time. There were still some Indian residential schools at that time although many had been closed. However I think that most aboriginal students probably just dropped out of school and that is why there were none in high school. ( )
