A patron is looking for a book he thinks was written about 10 years ago or so
about 3 elderly Inuit women (set in Alaska) who are left behind by their tribe
because of their age. The tribe falls on hard times and they bring the three
women back and they end up saving the tribe. Does this sound familiar to
anyone? The patron could not remember if it was fiction or nonfiction and
remembers the title to be something like "Three Old Women". Thanks in advance
for your help.

This book is TWO OLD WOMEN: AN ALASKA LEGEND OF BETRAYAL, COURAGE AND
SURVIVAL by Velma Wallis. A tiny book, but unforgettable.
