A reimagination of the Western Frontier, highlighting Indigenous narratives with Truth and Reconciliation.The Western Frontier is arguably one of the most widely misrepresented histories, rife with inaccuracies and stereotypes. Author Tristan Jones (who identifies as both Black and Indigenous) powerfully and critically reimagines a historical retelling of the Frontier through the lens of Truth and Reconciliation. With a focus on the historically missing Indigenous narrative, Jones manages the enormous feat of creating a link to the past while imagining a path forward for the future. Lavishly illustrated by master sequential artist Alexander Bumbulut, this new title is poised to revolutionize the graphic novel medium.
