Summary Annotation Traces the change of the Kuskokwim Eskimos of southwestern Alaska from an ethic of modesty and deference to one of self-assertion in response to the aggressive behavior of first Russian, and then American traders and settlers. Oswalt (anthropology, UCLA) augments his field work with Russian-American company records; writings of missionaries, traders, and explorers; and newspaper accounts.
