Margaret Nelson, Tlingit, Eagle moiety, President and CEO Alaska Native Heritage Center As Alaskas Native peoples confront contemporary challenges, they increasingly find strength in the traditional values and practices that have sustained their cultures for millennia. In stirring words, What the Elders Have Taught Us pays tribute to the first Alaskans and the ancient values they consider paramount.

The resulting essays are infused with personal reflection as well as profound truths. Featuring Roy Corrals outstanding photography, What the Elders Have Taught Us offers rare insight into the lives of Alaskas First Peopleat work and play, in celebration and sorrowliving out the legacy handed down by the elders.
