Native Cultures in Alaska: Looking Forward, Looking Back: Alaska Geographic
Editat de Tricia Brown, Alaska Geographicen Limba Engleză Hardback – 23 iun 2013
In the minds of most Americans, Native culture in Alaska amounts to Eskimos and igloos....The latest publication of the Alaska Geographic Society offers an accessible and attractive antidote to such misconceptions. Native Cultures in Alaska blends beautiful photographs with informative text to create a striking portrait of the state's diverse and dynamic indigenous population.
