John Muir and the Conversion of America's Last Untamed Tribe

When America's greatest naturalist, John Muir, went to Alaska in 1879, he visited the "most warlike Indians" remaining on the continent. His short, simple sermon proved to be the linchpin in the conversion of the Chilkat Tlingits to Christianity. The momentous meeting transformed Muir's view of Native Americans, and forever altered Chilkat culture.

(Ken Henry's brother, Dr. Daniel Lee Henry, is a Frontier Rhetorician, an honored writer, and founder of the Alaska Native Oratory Society.)
