Description

"Like Russian nesting matrioshka dolls, Sonja Luerhmann's book is a matrioshka of history, examining Alutiiq history during the Russian and American colonial periods within the larger context of Russian and American expansion. Luehrmann uses English and Russian source material to focus on the intersection of two colonial perspectives, throwing light on the differences in how each society incorporated the Alutiiq community as a labor force and as a social entity.
