South of Alaska on the island of Kodiak, where a small fishing village has existed for thousands of years, live the Sugpiaq. In 1871, a young French explorer, Alphonse Pinart, landed on this island and found notebooks full of stories about these people, their hunting techniques and rituals. We discover the adventures of hunters and fishermen, their women and children and their daily difficult and amazing lives. These stories also speak of love, courage, family and magic.
