Ernest S. Burch Jr. | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

It took more than a century for colonialism to reach Alaska after the first Europeans set foot in what would become the continental United States. The complex society of the Inupiaq, settled at the very top of the world, remained unknown and undisturbed longer than many other Native tribes in America. Ernest S. Burch Jr. dedicated most of his life and career to understanding this precolonial period and the lives of Northwest Alaska Natives. Inupiaq Ethnohistory finally collects his work in one place, offering a fascinating and accessible window into a now-vanished world.
