Part Mohawk and part European, she was a compelling female voice in the midst of an almost entirely male writing community. Having discovered her talent for public recitation of poetry, Johnson relied on her ancestry and gender to establish an international reputation for her stage performances, during which she appeared in European and native costume. These poems were later collected under the title of <em>Flint and Feather<\/em> (1912) and form the source of the selections appearing in this volume.<\/p>\n<p>Later, suffering from ill health, Pauline Johnson retired from the stage and devoted herself to the writing of prose, collected in <em>Legends of Vancouver, The Moccasin Maker<\/em> (1913), and <em>The Shagganappi<\/em> (1913), gleanings from which form part of this collection.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pauline Johnson: Selected Poetry and Prose Dundurn Press June 2013 240 pages 5.5 in x 8.5 in Paperback ISBN: 978-1-45970-426-8 eBook ISBN: 978-1-45970-428-2 Pauline Johnson (1861-1913) Compiled and Introduced by: Michael Gnarowski Pauline Johnson was an unusual and unique presence on the literary scene during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
