Wilson, Ken, photographs and edited by.

First Edition. Oblong quarto. xiv, 143pp. Two hundred seventy color photographs; maps, bibliography, index. Hardcover; a Near Fine copy in dust jacket. // With contributions from Jeff Dickrell, Moses L. Dirks, Suzi Golodoff, Ray Hudson, Rick Knecht, Sharon Svarny Livingston, Kirsten Nicolayson, Jeff Richardson, and Father Peter Bourdukofsky. "This collection of breathtaking photographs and captivating essays is a window into life in the remote island communities sandwiched between the North Pacific and the Bering Sea. These islands have been home to the Unangan people, also known as the Aleut, since America's earliest occupation. The book brings into clear focus, through text and image, the people, the landscape and the animals of this amazing archipelago that stretches from North America to Asia. The photographs themselves pose questions that can only be answered by the island residents: the Unangans who write from a depth of ancestral attachment and the more recent arrivals, perhaps drawn by fortune, who have been captivated by the beauty of the region. Almost every image reveals the dramatic and temperamental weather that makes the islands at once forbidding and alluring: banks of fog, shafts of sunlight and the powerful and capricious winds." ~ from the publisher.
