Learning their complex language from a young Indian; becoming friends, he met Chief Legaic, who supported Duncan starting a school. Gaining a following, he developed the Christian mission called Metlakatla. Later, the British forced claim to their ancestral lands. Duncan appealed to U.S. Congress who voted them free land on Annette Island in American Alaska Territory. Migrating by huge canoes, they began again, building a modern community and church of no denomination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elaine Wentworth\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1491713615\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781491713617\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e iUniverse\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.69lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.48d","brand":"Elaine Wentworth","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43985820713215,"sku":"9781491713617","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fbad82d3-4749-466e-a139-b02b92448233.jpg?v=1683279732","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mission-to-metlakatla-elaine-wentworth-9781491713617","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
