Dena'inaq' Huch'ulyeshi - The Dena'ina Way of Living

The Dena'ina people of southcentral Alaska have occupied their subarctic homeland for at least a thousand years, yet their culture has largely been overlooked. Dena'inaq' Huch'ulyeshi is an ambitious project that finally brings their culture to light. Lavishly illustrated with six hundred photographs, maps, and drawings, Dena'inaq' Huch'ulyeshi contains entries on Dena'ina objects in European and American collections. It is enriched with examples of traditional Dena'ina narratives, first-person accounts, and interviews. Essays on the history and culture of the Athabascan people put the pieces into historical context.
