Chasing The Dark: Perspectives on Place, History and Alaska Native Land Claims. Edited by Kenneth L. Pratt Shadowlands Volume 1 January 2009 472 pages Editor's Preface: The program that ultimately developed in response to Section 14(h)(1) of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) had no precedent; it is, literally, a one-of-a-kind program. Thus, the framers of ANCSA had no way of knowing that the implemenation of Section 14(h)(1) would result in the largest and most diverse single collection of information ever compiled about the history and cultures of Alaska Natives. ... Through this publication the BIA seeks to both increase public awareness of the important program, and offer a glimpse of the valuable information the agency maintains concerning Alaska history and the traditions of Alaska Native peoples.
