Description

The late Tlingit elder Elizabeth Nyman and linguist Jeff Leer have collaborated to produce this deeply moving and personal record of life in the Taku River region of Southeastern Alaska, Interior British Columbia, and Southern Yukon. Told by Mrs. Nyman in her native Tlingit and translated and edited by Jeff Leer, these six narrative texts relate ancient legends and traditional stories about the people of the Taku region. The Legacy of a Taku River Tlingit Clan is a collection of some of the personal and mythological stories that define the Tlingit people. The book is richly illustrated with maps, historic photos, and many full-color scenes of prominent places in the stories.
