Congratulations to Thomas King, who has won British Columbia’s National Award for Canadian Non-Fiction for The Inconvenient Indian: A Curious Account of Native People in North America.

The jury, in its citation, called it a “wry, iconoclastic and important book that challenges us to think differently about both the past and the future.”
