Description

Ashini is the fictionalized autobiography of a Montagnais Indian hunter and nomad; it explores his relationship with nature and his own kind, as well as his reactions to white civilization. The solution which Ashini invents for his own and his people's dilemma is as logical as it is unexpected. Published in English.
