Camus: West Coast Cooking, Nuu-chah-nulth Style

In Camus (pronounced “chum-us”), First Nations elders and families from the west coast of Vancouver Island and northern Washington share the wisdom and riches of their territories. Marrying community cuisine with cooking tips, cultural observations and oral history anecdotes, Camus features traditional and modern ingredients for a mouthwatering read. Wholeheartedly endorsed by the Nuu-chah-nulth Council of Ha’wiih (hereditary chiefs), Camus illuminates a traditional way of eating while promoting a healthy lifestyle.
