Without warning, a deafening boom drove us to the ground, even Nutaui. I heard my heart pound hard against my chest. Seconds later another earsplitting blast struck us. When low-level flying by NATO jets upsets their way of life, Nanass, a young Innu girl, is eager to join her father and the other members of her Sheshatshiu community in protest. Then her father and other protesters are arrested. Nanass has little to comfort her, except her fathers well-worn ball cap and the promise of the land itself that the Innu people will one day triumph. Nutauis Cap has been translated into two dialects of Innu-aimun, which appear alongside the English; it includes a glossary, map, and backgrounder to tell more of the Innus story. This book is a co-publication by Mamu Tshishkutamashutau Innu Education and Running the Goat, Books & Broadsides
