This book is very interesting and I like it very much. Deep in Alaska's bush country. The six hundred men, women and children who live there--almost all of them Athabascan Gwich'in Natives--have little to cheer for. Their traditional Indian ways of life are rapidly vanishing in the face of a modern culture that is closing in on all sides, threatening to destroy their community and their identity. This is many ways the American Indian are vanishing from their homeland and losing their culture and their way of life. But most of the glitch natives still live like their ancestors and follow their way of life.
