Paperback. Condition: Very Good. From his home in a remote Eskimo Village, Nick Jans leads us into a vast, magical world: Alaska's Brooks Range. Drawn from fourteen years of arctic experience, The Last Light Breaking offers a rare perspective on America's last great wilderness and its people-the Inupiat Eskimos, an ancient culture on the cusp of change. With the eye of an outdoorsman and the heart of a poet, Jans weaves together these twenty-three essays with strands of Eskimo narrative, making vivid a place where wolves and grizzlies still roam free, hunters follow the caribou, and old women cast their nets in the dusk as they have for countless generations. But looking on the horizon is the world of roads and modern technology; the future has already arrived in the form of stop signs, computers, and satellite dishes. Jans creates unforgettable images of a proud people facing an uncertain future, and of his own journey through this haunting, timeless landscape. Hailed as one of the best new books about Alaska when it was first released in 1993, The Last Light Breaking is now one of the classics of Alaska literature, used in classrooms from middle school to college, as well as recommended reading for anyone curious about the state. Author Nick Jans now lives in Juneau, Alaska, and has retired from teaching to write full time. His books include A Place Beyond, The Grizzly Maze, and Tracks of the Unseen. "This is simply the best piece of Alaska writing published in several years .Jans has a strong feeling for place.He's a fluid writer, with an uncanny knack for finding the perfect image." -Homer News "He writes eloquently of wolves, bears, and caribou, and the stillness and grace of the arctic landscape .Jans' insights into Eskimo culture and values ring with authenticity and warmth, and he writes with an unromanticized respect for his fellow villagers." -The Seattle Times. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Shaman and Kushtaka, both struck terror in the hearts of the Tlingit and Haida, for both possessed frightening supernatural powers. Among the Natives of the Pacific Northwest Coast, the shaman was honored as a person who could heal the body and spirit as well as see into the future. In his struggles to protect his people, he fought the kushtakaan evil spirit-being who was half human and half land hotterfor the souls of dying persons. Theirs was a battle between the forces of good and evil, and today it remains a cornerstone in Tlingit and Haida mythology. Mary Giraudo Beck provides a powerful mix of history, legend, and adventure to dramatize the values and traditions of Tlingit and Haida societies. The heroic and wondrous incidents in these stories transcend time and culture and, as tales of myth and magic, provide compelling reading for young and old alike.

"The dramatic story of the Cherokee people has long captivated appreciators of American history. In ""Cherokee,"" the history and culture of one of the most resilient original peoples of the United States is brought to life through spectacular photography and vivid prose. The Cherokees' poignant story is one that is difficult to believe: from their shameful treatment at the hands of the Colonial settlers, to their ""Removal"" west over the Trail of Tears in the 1800s, to their resurgence and current prosperity as a distinct nation. Presented in this elegant volume, the tale of the Cherokees' courage and endurance is at once remarkable, stirring, and enlightening. Author Robert J. Conley recounts the history and struggle of the Cherokee and offers a window into today's Cherokee culture in moving detail. Cherokee Nation Principal Chief Chadwick Smith provides an eloquent introduction to the book. The stunning photography of David G. Fitzgerald portrays the land and lifeways of these proud people, including many powerful portraits of contemporary individuals.".
