On the famous Inside Passage to Alaska lies Ketchikan, 650 miles northwest of Seattle. Here, Alaska's First City (geographically speaking) nestles with her feet bathed in the clean, blue waters of the Pacific, and her head in a mountain wonderland of majestic beauty. Deer Mountain forms a picturesque background for the "Salmon capital of the world". This book has a chapter on different tribes of the three southeast Alaska nations --- the Tlingit, Tsimshian and Haida --- as well as of the Whites. The last chapter is superb in it's coverage of various totem poles with descriptions, information, and black & white photos.
