Helen Beavers was a teacher at the Chemawa Indian School in Salem, Oregon when she gathered this "heart-warming and quietly eloquent collection of essays and stories composed by Alaskan (Inupiat/Inyupik) students while they were studying" at the Chemawa School. "The final impression is that of young and searching and strangely penetrating minds, coping with the integration of diverse cultures: Indian, Alaskan, and American… The traditions and way of life of the Alaskans are also set forth in honest and realistic terms."
