This book is a thoughtful collection of essays that explores history, climate change, and Indigenous life in the Alaska-Yukon borderlands. Written by Corinna Cook, it blends personal reflection with research to examine how the past is preserved in the land, especially through melting permafrost and ancient artifacts. The essays connect environmental change with human stories, asking how people can understand and live with difficult histories. Through a mix of storytelling and observation, the book offers a meaningful look at culture, memory, and the impact of a changing world.
