Moments Rightly Placed

"In 1964, Ray Hudson, twenty-two, landed in Unalaska village with a brand-new college degree, eager to teach. The Aleuts had seen many outsiders who seldom stayed more than a year. Yet Hudson was no short-timer. Captivated by Unalaska and the history and traditions of its enduring people, he stayed. As the years passed he was embraced by his Aleut neighbors, sharing their celebrations and tragedies, teaching their children, exploring their culture, and, much to their surprise, learning their delicate art of grass basketry. Ultimately Ray Hudson pays homage to the people he came to teach, and who, in the end, were his teachers."--BOOK JACKET.
