Fifty Miles from Tomorrow - Willy Hensley remembers

Native leader Willie Hensley's book "Fifty Miles from Tomorrow" has only been out for a couple of weeks but so far sales are brisk.  The book is a memoir that spans the early years of Hensley's career - from growing up in a house made of arctic sod through the successful passage of the Native Claims Settlement Act.  Hensley says it's important for Natives to tell their own stories.Steve Heimel, APRN - AnchorageDownload Audio
