Grandfather of the Treaties: Finding Our Future Through the Wampum Covenant (Summary, Reviews & Purchase Options)

What if the key to our future was buried in the promises of our past? In Grandfather of the Treaties, Daniel Coleman invites you on a journey of relearning—of hearing what was silenced and honoring what was meant to endure. Drawing on decades of collaboration with Indigenous scholars, this essential work traces the history and meaning of the wampum covenants that shaped the foundation of Canada—agreements forged not in conquest, but in relationship. With clarity and care, Coleman reveals how these sacred promises can still guide us today, helping build a more honest, just, and sustainable future. For anyone seeking to understand the true roots of this land and the commitments we must uphold, this book is both a reckoning and a call to action.
