WATERDOWN—Niagara Escarpment: Land Between Waters is a remarkable new photobook by Mark Zelinski, rich in natural and cultural imagery with Knowledge Keepers and scientists sharing insights. Zelinski calls this book a 14-year odyssey of the escarpment and its peoples.
While working on his previous book, The Heart of Turtle Island: The Niagara Escarpment, Zelinski learned of the many Indigenous communities on the escarpment, from Niagara Falls to the west tip of Manitoulin Island.
“I realized very quickly that I needed not only to do separate chapters on the individual Nations of the escarpment lands, but to have Indigenous chapter writers to write those stories because I know it’s always better if people can tell their own stories.”
