A look at the Haida, the First Nation people of Haida Gwaii in the Pacific Northwest. A powerful seafaring culture, the Haida don wooden armor and trade with and raid distant coastlines, drawing later comparisons to the Vikings. Faced with European and American traders, the Haida mount considerable resistance to colonial incursions in a history that includes American Revolutionaries, King Kamehameha of Hawaii, and more.
