It is a place where great caribou herds gather, calve, and migrate as they did in the Pleistocene, and where the ancient bond between animals and human hunters still informs daily life.&quot; &quot;Bass's avid desire to meet this landscape and its native people, the Gwich-'in, had several sources. A hunter himself since childhood, he now pursues game with a primal passion coupled with an environmentalist's conscience, providing nearly all the meat his family consumes. He hoped to kill one caribou and bring home its meat. But the deeper intent of that act was to enter, even briefly, the experience of the Gwich-'in, who have been following, relying on, and praying to the caribou for 10,000 years, in a parallel relationship to that of the Plains tribes and the buffalo.&quot; &quot;Waiting to travel upriver, Bass walks the land, talks to villagers about their lives, and interviews their leaders. He ponders the profound differences between this culture and ours: &quot;the gunmetal hardness of their lives,&quot; their casual acceptance of physical risk, and their visceral knowledge that none can exist outside the community. And he reflects on the timeless dance of human, caribou, and land in this place.&quot;--Jacket.<br/>Book<br/> Dreaming bears : a Gwich'in Indian storyteller, a southern doctor, a wild corner of Alaska ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:2062422 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Holloway, J. Michael,<br/>[2014]<br/>&quot;This is a true story of the rare friendship that develops between a young medical student with deep roots in the South and an elderly Indian couple in the wilds of northeast Alaska. In 1961, Mike Holloway, his brother Ted, and a college friend set out from South Carolina to spend the summer hiking in arctic Alaska, intending to live off the land. They end up in the homeland of the Gwich'in -- the northernmost Indians in North America. The young men charter a small plane into the isolated village of Venetie, and are directed to the remote cabins of Johnny and Sarah Frank, an elderly Gwich'in couple who lived a thirty-five mile walk from the village. Johnny was a well-known storyteller and former medicine man. Sarah made their home welcoming with warm, calm kindness. Mike's rich encounters in Gwich'in country deepen his love of wild land and his respect for those who depend upon it for their survival. The experience alters his life. He becomes the adopted grandson of Johnny and Sarah, returning to Alaska as a doctor and an advocate for the land and its people&quot;--Page [4] of cover.<br/>Book<br/> The future of bilingual education in Alaska : conference report : Dinaak?'a, Nikisindik, Gwich'in, Ginkhii. ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1514168 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z JLC Corporate Author&#160;Statewide Conference on the Future of Bilingual Education in Alaska (1st : 1975 : Anchorage, Alaska)<br/>[1975]<br/>Book<br/> Dinjii vadzaih dhidlit : the man who became a caribou.

Collected here for the first time are stories from the communities of interior Alaska and the Yukon Territory. These are the tales the people tell about themselves, their communities, and the world they inhabit. Our Voices showcases twenty storytellers and writers who represent a full range of Athabaskan and related languages of Alaska and the Yukon. Both men and women recount popular tales of ancient times that describe the origins of social institutions and cultural values, as well as meaningful, sometimes intimate stories about their own lives and families or the history of their people. As representatives of an art transmitted through countless generations and now practiced with renewed interest and vigor by people reclaiming their cultural heritage, these narratives create a broad, brightly colored, richly detailed picture of the world of the Far North, present and past.--Amazon.com.<br/>Book<br/> K'aiiroondak : behind the willows ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:803 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Martin, Richard.<br/>c1993.<br/>Book<br/> The Alaska native reader : history, culture, politics ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1230793 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2009.<br/>Book<br/> A special gift : the Kutchin beadwork tradition ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1385 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Duncan, Kate C.<br/>&copy;1988.<br/>Presents the history, regional variation, and present status of bead embroidery, a traditional art of the subarctic Kutchin.

Beadwork is the form a woman will often choose when a most special gift is called for; the beaded object is love made visible. Among these subarctic Athapaskan people, beadwork today continues a tradition that has been important for well over a century. Both changes and continuities were evident in that tradition when, in 1982, Kate Duncan, an art historian, and Eunice Carney, a Kutchin elder and beadworker, visited Kutchin communities in Alaska and the Yukon Territory, carrying photographs of older beadwork now in museum collections and talking with people about the art. This new edition, with an expanded section of color plates and an updated introduction, brings back into print the product of their effort. The narrative traverses the history of Kutchin beadwork, beginning with early regional differences and work that exists now only in memory, extending to the last decades of the twentieth century.<br/>Book<br/> Elders speak ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1639440 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 1979.<br/>Book<br/> Preliminary study of traditional Kutchin clothing in museums. ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1536712 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Thompson, Judy,<br/>1972.<br/>Book<br/> NbVk-1: an historic fishing camp in Old Crow Flats, northern Yukon Territory ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1621279 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Morlan, Richard E.<br/>1972.<br/>Book<br/> Hunters of the northern forest : designs for survival among the Alaskan Kutchin ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:4777352 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Nelson, Richard K.<br/>1973.<br/>Book<br/> John Fredson Edward Sapir h&agrave;a googwandak = Stories told by John Fredson to Edward Sapir ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1645672 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Fredson, John,<br/>1982.<br/>Autobiographical, historical and descriptive accounts of life in the Yukon Flats in the early 20th century, and traditional stories, told by the young Fredson, later a noted leader, to Sapir in 1923.<br/>Book<br/> Khehkwaii Zheh Gwiich?i? = Living in the Chief's house ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1518356 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Peter, Katherine,<br/>c2001.<br/>Book<br/> Wolf Smeller (Zhoh Gwatsan) : a biography of John Fredson, Native Alaskan ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:123936 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Mackenzie, Clara Childs.<br/>1985.<br/>Biography of orphaned Kutchin Indian boy who became the first Athabascan Indian to graduate from high school and college in Alaska.<br/>Book<br/> Wolf Smeller (Zhoh Gwatsan) : a biography of John Fredson, Native Alaskan ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1904 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Mackenzie, Clara Childs.<br/>[1983?]<br/>Book<br/> Contributions to the ethnography of the Kutchin ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1532323 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Osgood, Cornelius,<br/>1936.<br/>Bibliography:p.189.<br/>Book<br/> The crooked stovepipe : Athapaskan fiddle music and square dancing in Northeast Alaska and Northwest Canada ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1652122 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Mishler, Craig.<br/>c1993.<br/>&quot;Named for a popular local fiddle tune, The Crooked Stovepipe is a rollicking, detailed, first-ever study of the indigenous fiddle music and social dancing enjoyed by the Gwich'in Athapaskan Indians and other tribal groups in northeast Alaska, the Yukon, and the northwest territories. Though the music has obvious roots in the British Isles, French Canada, and the American South, the Gwich'in have used it in shaping their own aesthetic, which is apparent in their choice of fiddle tunings, bowing techniques, foot clogging, and a distinctively stratified tune repertoire.&quot; &quot;Craig Mishler treats this rural subarctic artistic tradition as a distinctive regional style akin to Cajun, bluegrass, or string-band music. He uses convergence theory as the framework for showing how this aesthetic came about. His skillful use of personal anecdotes, interviews, music examples, dance diagrams, and photographs will appeal to general readers interested in folk music and dance, as well as to specialists.&quot;--BOOK JACKET.<br/>Book<br/> Ettunetle rsotitinyoo, thlukwinadhum sheg ak? ketchid kwitugwatsu? : Takudh ttshah zit thleteteitazya ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:4235279 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 1980.<br/>Book<br/> Here are the news. ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1665098 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Josie, Edith,<br/>[c1966]<br/>Book<br/> The best of Edith Josie : Here are the news, Old Crow 1963-1964 ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1649919 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z Josie, Edith,<br/>c1977.<br/>Book<br/> Oil on ice [DVD] ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1075850 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z c2005.<br/>A documentary connecting the fate of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to decisions America makes about energy policy, transportation choices, and other seemingly unrelated matters.

What happened was a meeting of mythical time and real time, of the past and the instant of encounter, of flesh and of dream. To Believe in the Animal tells the story of the anthropologist Nastassja Martins's nearly fatal run-in with a bear while conducting research in Russia and of the aftermath of the event, of the wounds she took away from it but also of a rebirth in spirit and mind. As an anthropologist, Martin has made a name for the fullness of her engagement with the peoples she studies, the Gwich'in of Alaska and the Evens of far eastern Siberia. She seeks to bridge the distance between the subject, so-called, and herself, between the different experiences and kinds of knowledge that each of them brings into play, the better to frame, and open up, questions about the nature of human beings. In her dangerous encounter with the bear, however, Martin encounters another kind of being altogether, setting off a series of subsequent disasters. She is left severely mutilated and undergoes multiple operations in a provincial Russian hospital, whose ghastly chief surgeon sports a mouthful of gold teeth and presides over a harem of young nurses. Back in France, she goes under the knife again, supposedly to fix the work done in Russia, but the results are even more problematic. She comes to the conclusion that she must return to Kamchatka. She must discover what it means to have become, as the Evens call it, a miedka, a person who is not only human but beast. That is the only way that she can follow through on the anthropological work she had begun&quot;--<br/>Book<br/> The whale &amp; the cupcake : stories of subsistence, longing, and community in Alaska ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:5471175 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z O'Malley, Julia,<br/>[2019]<br/>1st edition.<br/>&quot;With every generation, Alaska connects further to the outside world, but there are ways in which it will never be able to transcend the distance, physical and psychological. What Alaskans eat is an amalgam of wild-sourced foods, intricately tied to their landscape and identity, and foods that travel wildly long distances to get here, from faraway homes they long for or from places they can only imagine. In The Whale and the Cupcake: Stories of Subsistence, Longing, and Community, widely-published independent journalist and third-generation Alaskan Julia O'Malley reflects on the rub between self-reliance and longing that lives at the center of Alaskan food culture. The highly illustrated book will feature 12 new and previously published essays on that highlight Alaska's unique blend of isolated and international foodways, covering everything from whale hunting in the wake of climate change and the growing popularity of Spam musubi, to how Anchorage residents stock up on proteins and crave fresh fruit in the face of a long winter. It will also include five interviews with people who work with food (chefs, home cooks, purveyors, etc) and 10 - 12 of O'Malley's own recipes&quot;--<br/>Book<br/> Arctic voices : resistance at the tipping point ent://SD_ILS/0/SD_ILS:1467558 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z 2024-06-01T08:07:54Z c2012.<br/>1st ed.<br/>A pristine environment of ecological richness and biodiversity. Home to generations of indigenous people for thousands of years. The location of vast quantities of oil, natural gas and coal. Largely uninhabited and long at the margins of global affairs, in the last decade Arctic Alaska has quickly become the most contested land in recent US history. World-renowned photographer, writer, and activist Subhankar Banerjee brings together first-person narratives from more than thirty prominent activists, writers, and researchers who address issues of climate change, resource war, and human rights with stunning urgency and groundbreaking research. From Gwich'in activist Sarah James's impassioned appeal, &quot;We Are the Ones Who Have Everything to Lose, &quot; during the UN Climate Conference in Copenhagen in 2009 to an original piece by acclaimed historian Dan O'Neill about his recent trips to the Yukon Flats fish camps, Arctic Voices is a window into a remarkable region.
