5.0 out of 5 stars From the Back Cover, October 28, 2007
This review is from: Neerihiinjik: We Traveled From Place to Place (Second Edition) (Paperback)
"Johnny and Sara Frank's lives were steeped in the old ways of survival in the upland boreal forest of northeastern Alaska. Constantly on the move in search of game and other wild resources, sharing the harvest with others around them, and passing on their skills and cultural values through a rich tradition of oral literature, the Franks are vivid examples of how the Gwich'in people survived as a tribe." "The stories told...are presented here with English translations on facing pages. The finished texts were transcribed from more than thirty-five hours of tape recordings." "...they present a balanced view of the Gwich'in world -- the masculine and the feminine, the spiritual as well as the practical."

5.0 out of 5 stars Texts, June 22, 2003
This review is from: Neerihiinjik: We Traveled From Place to Place (Second Edition) (Paperback)
This is a book similar to "Dena'ina Legacy", it just describes different people in a different language. Well, I tried to compare the text and translation - it just won't work for Athabaskan, but the texts are interesting, there are pictures, biographies of the informants in English only, bilingual mythical texts, and bilingual stories taken from life. Tone is marked. The texts together are quite long, not just examples. If you are interested in Northern Athabaskans, this book is worth reading.
