"Drawing and Stories by Milo Minock"
"Milo Minock
Milo Minock was born on the Lower Yukon, and has spent most of his life in the village of Pilot Station. Although his work is relatively unknown in the outside world, he is an artist of stature among the people of the Kuskokwim-Lower Yukon Delta. During the more than thirty years that he has been working, Milo has produced a voluminous number of works ranging from pen drawings, as shown in this book, to skin paintings. Milo's felling for the Upik Eskimo, his people, comes through in each one of his works, depicting the warmth and hardship of day-to-day life on Alaska's two largest rivers. The stories in this book, have been reproduced, untouched, in Milo's own hand to give the reader a feeling of the man himself."
