Circle of Helmets is a glimpse into the inner core of a young soldier at war and how it has changed him over the years---a coming of age odyssey, from ingenuous soldier to hardened veteran. Told through battlefield accounts written by the young soldier just hours after actual combat, coupled with intense poems about that combat experience from the same man, some thirty years later, it is a story you will not forget. "Riveting, poignant and full of incredible accounts and insights, this book brings the experience of the Vietnam War to life in a way that is absolutely unforgettable. I cannot recommend it enough." Andrew Carroll, editor of War Letters: Extraordinary Correspondence from American Wars. "A searingly personal anthology . . . an important contribution to our understanding of the war and those who fought it." Rick Atkinson, author of The Liberation Trilogy.

This book brings together as complete a record of traditional Yupik rules and rituals as is possible in the late twentieth century. Incorporating elders' recollections of the system of ruled boundaries and ritual passages that guided their parents and grandparents a century ago, Ann Fienup-Riordan brings into focus the complex, creative Yupik world view - expressed by ceremonial exchanges and the cycling of names, gifts, and persons - which continues to shape daily life in communities along the Bering Sea coast. Her analysis is illustrated with many contemporary and historical photographs. Identifying "metaphors to live by, " Fienup-Riordan tells of "the Boy Who Went to Live with Seals" and "the Girl Who Returned from the Dead." She explains how in Yupik cosmology their stories illustrate relationships among human beings, animals, and the spirit world - the "boundaries and passages" between death and the renewal of life.
