This review is from: Aleut Dictionary: Unangam Tundguaii (Paperback)

It may be a little bias to review this dictionary due to the fact the there are no other Aleut - English dictionaries out there (at least none that I know). The dictionary is great, and surprisingly up-to-date as best as I can tell. The only draw-back that I can think of is that the dictionary attempts to look at older words used in Aleut history (in other words, it lists archaic terms as well as newer terms for words) and thus it can be confusing which is which. But over all this is still a great dictionary.

Available through the Alaska Native Language Center (google for it, they also have quite a bunch of other resources).
