{"product_id":"making-history-patricia-partnow-9781889963396","title":"Making History: Alutiiq\/Sugpiaq Life on the Alaska Peninsula.","description":"A model of innovative ethnohistory, this account of the Alutiiq people of the Alaska Peninsula spans some 9000 years, concentrating on the 200 years between Russian occupation and the start of the war with Japan. Unlike most historical documentation of the region, it is not a passive record: using collective and individual histories of a people as captured through writing, artifact, oral history, and personal narrative, Partnow weaves a rich story of Alutiiqs not only making their own history, but also expressing a unique perception of the very nature of history. Numerous historical and contemporary maps and photographs, as well as Partnow's historical and cultural background, allow the people to speak for themselves while expanding the ability of readers to interpret the various voices. Together the many elements of this history show a vital culture making its way into the future without letting go of the past.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Patricia Partnow\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1889963399\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781889963396\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Alaska Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 296\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eUniv PR Books for Public Libry\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2003 pg. 114 - Recommended\/Regional General","brand":"Patricia Partnow","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44075111514367,"sku":"9781889963396","price":30.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_29054cfa-dbe2-4acf-a459-f680c54ed4ec.jpg?v=1685457676","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/making-history-patricia-partnow-9781889963396","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
