Another Culture / Another World Father Michael Oleska
In this book Father Michael welcomes us to explore with him the great diversity and common humanity of Alaska's cultural mosaic. A keen observer of cultural distinctions, Father Michael shares experiences and friendships he has had with Native people over the course of his 30-year journey through Alaska. His message of acceptance and engagement is conveyed through the telling of amusing anecdotes, the re-examination of historical events, and his analysis of representative Alaska Native legends, all of which illustrate his fervently held belief in the intrinsic value of every culture. Includes extensive photographs.
