Founded in 1888, the Sheldon Jackson Museum houses more than 5,000 Eskimo, Aleut, Athapaskan, Tlingit, and Haida objects collected before 1900. This collection--principally of 19th century material--is one of the finest assemblages in the world of the material culture of this area and its peoples. To celebrate the museum's centennial, this volume--containing twelve essays by noted experts--was published. Each of the heavily illustrated essays discusses and provides details on a particular type of material in the collection. Out of print.
