Gabriola Island is home to numerous ancient native petroglyph sites. In Gabriola: Petroglyph Island, Mary and Ted Bentley examine the sacred spiritual images of Northwest Coast native artforms. The authors' thoughtful approach stems from their deep commitment to the preservation of petroglyph sites and to their respectful study of the aboriginal cultures which produced these enigmatic and magical rock carvings.
