Notes

"... Native Indian rock art, the petroglyph, is found all over the northwest coast. Gabriola Island houses a major site which was discovered as recently as 1976. Included in Gabriola : Petroglyph Island are photographs, rubbings, drawings and descriptions of over fifty of the petroglyphs on this site and on five other sites on the island.
As well as an in-depth look at the petroglyphs of Gabriola island, the authors discuss petroglyphs in general as to their locations, carving methods, dating techniques and the possible reasons for their existence. ..." Quoted from the back cover.
