Abstract
"The stories of these men are tales of courage, determination, and honesty, often in the face of racism and adversity. Read about Larry Merculieff, who helped bring a once oppressed Aleutian people to a position of power and self-sufficiency; Frank Abraham, an Ojibwe Chief whose wisdom and honesty helped his tribe to rise from near financial failure; Raymond Cross, a Coyote leader who won a victory of compensation for the Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara people; and Stanley Vollant, an Aboriginal surgeon who fulfilled a 100-year-old Innu tribal prophecy."--WorldCat.org.
