A ten-year-old Eskimo (Inupiat) boy who lives far north of the Arctic Circle describes his family's annual spring trip to their camp, where they hunt and fish for food to supplement their diet for the rest of the year and enjoy old traditions.
The author provides a detailed memoir of his Alaskan heritage, life on the tundra, and years of fighting the U.S. government over Native Alaskan land rights.
