Teedląy t'iin naholndak niign: Stories by the Tetlin People describes life as it used to be along the Upper Tanana River of Alaska. Cora David's stories describe growing up -- the migratory lifestyle, the food, the toys -- as well as the history of the Tetlin people -- natural disasters, interactions with the land and animals, and ancient warfare. Cora tells her stories in Upper Tanana Athabascan. The stories are transcribed and translated into English (on facing pages) by Olga Lovick with the help of Roy Sam, Avis Sam, and Rosa Brewer.
