Crooked on the Stretcher Board: Collected Essays on Gwich'in History, Language and Folk Culture (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798988473220)

"Mishler's decades of commitment, his long affiliation with the Gwich'in communities and research collaborations with [Kenneth] Frank and other Gwich'in knowledge keepers is evident throughout the text. This book clearly is written with the inspiration, tutelage, language, cultural expertise, and teaching experience of Frank, with whom Mishler has been a research and writing partner with since the mid-1990s. It is from their several scholarly publications, oral presentations, and professional papers that these essays are born. Mishler and Frank's unique, meticulously researched, pleasant writing style and ability to inform the reader about the historical connections and context to the subject, is what makes their work so important." - Leslie McCartney, from the Foreword.
