Rodger D. Touchie was first attracted to writing when his MBA thesis was published in three parts by Canadian Business magazine. Rodger continued writing, including books on BC history and travel, before becoming the owner/publisher of Heritage House in 1995. He and his wife, Pat, divide their time between Nanoose Bay and Victoria, BC.
"This book provides excellent information on ethnographers' bias
and the tension created preserving the cultures and creating an
image of the noble savage." --Canada's History-- (10/15/2011)
"Rodger D. Touchie's Edward S. Curtis: Above the Medicine Line is a
handsome volume that treats readers to some of Curtis's stunning
black-and-white photography. As Touchie tells of Curtis's life and
travels, the photographs offer compelling glimpses of landscapes
and peoples that a century later seem both strangely present and
remarkably foreign. You will want to linger over many of these
extraordinary images." --Phil Koch, Canada's History
