Peyakow

In Peyakow, Darrel J. McLeod continues his compelling memoir that began with Mamaskatch, recounting his challenging upbringing as a Cree boy in Northern Alberta. Navigating the struggles of poverty, bullying, and deep personal traumas, McLeod's journey reflects both the darkness of his past and the resilience that propelled him to success as an educator, leader, and author. With a title meaning "one who walks alone," this brutally honest yet hopeful narrative offers a powerful perspective on identity and triumph amidst adversity in contemporary Canada.
