The Aleuts live a precarious existence on the edge of two continents. They survive against the odds because they live in harmony with their environment. When Japan declares war on America, these small islands are all that separates Asia from North America. This is the tragic tale of a people forced from their land for their own protection by forces beyond their control. Evacuated, imprisoned and diseased, they survive against the odds. Karen Hesse recreates the poetry of a culture brought to the brink of extinction by a modern world.
