To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There are able students of ethnol- ogy who insist upon the origin of these Alaskans being Asiatic for various good and sufficient rea- sons, instancing not only their personal appear- ance, but the similarity of their traditions and cus- toms to those of the people of Asia. To have come thence it is remembered that they had only to cross a narrow piece of water forty miles wide. This passage is frequently made in our times by open boats. At certain seasons of the year, though in so northern a l...atitude, the strait is by no means rough. Mr. Seward says: "I have mingled freely with the multifarious population, the Ton- gas, the Stickeens, the Kakes, the Haidas, the Sit- kas, the Kootnoos, and the Chilcats. Climate and other circumstances have indeed produced some differences of manners and customs between the Aleuts, the Koloschians, and the interior conti- nental tribes, but all of them are manifestly of Mongol origin. Although they have preserved no common traditions, all alike indulge in tastes, wear a physiognomy, and are imbued with senti- ments peculiarly noticed in China and Japan.
