In their own words, these women--teachers, artists, musicians, writers, entrepreneurs, and environmentalists--share stories that embody the spirit of the Kootenays. From fleeing the US draft alongside the men of the 60s and pushing against traditional gender roles and sexism, to reclaiming Indigenous identities, calling out environmental threats, and fighting for our climate today, these stories span the spectrum of human experience. Thoughtful, heartwarming, and delightfully entertaining, \u003ci\u003eDancing on Mountains\u003c\/i\u003e is a celebration of the brilliant, radical essence of the women of the Kootenays.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLuanne Armstrong\u003c\/b\u003e holds a Ph.D in Education and an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of British Columbia.
