Geology of the Alaska Peninsula--
This report describes the geologic history and structural configuration of the Alaska Peninsula. A geological map at a scale of 1:250,000 presents in detail the results of recent field investigations in the Alaska Peninsula and adjacent Pacific Islands. A tectonic map incorporating this new information, at a scale of 1:1,000,000, shows the structural configuration of the Alaska Peninsula area. The text is devoted largely to a presentation of basic stratigraphic relationships and to an interpretation of the structural features and history of the Alaska Peninsula. (Author).

Making History
"Documents about the Alutiiq people of the Alaska Peninsula, written by outsiders, tell a familiar story of political subjugation, economic deprivation, and cultural loss. But recordings of oral traditions and personal histories by the Alutiiqs themselves tell a different tale. These narratives, woven together here with written records and scholarly commentary into an ethnohistory, show that Alutiiqs have been making their own history for millennia. Through stories and actions, Alutiiqs not only affect the course of their lives, but in so doing express a unique perception of the very nature of history. Illustrated with numerous photographs and maps, the author offers interviews and tales from storytellers from Alaska Peninsula villages. She gives historical and cultural context to each voice, allowing people to speak for themselves while helping readers comprehend the unspoken significance and implications each account contains. Alutiiq history is revealed here as an ongoing, complex, multivocal expression of a people's actions and reactions, decisions and compromises."--taken from back cover.
