Reviews
On Jul 10 2007, SDENNEY said:
Part of the "Story of Man Library" series. "Dare flashing flues of a whale with intrepid seamen of the Pacific northwest and join in their elaborate potlatches. Play stickball -- "younger brother of war" -- with woodland farmers or go on an Iroquois raid. Count coup with Plains warriors, beseech rain gods with Hopi Snake dancers, learn that Indian languages -- where one word may contain all the elements of a sentence -- can hardly be called "primitive." Use the book's tribal supplement and 32 1/2-by-37 1/2-inch cultural map to discover details about nearly 600 tribes of the United States and Canada. More than 440 illustrations -- 361 in full color -- enrich this vivid acount of the American Indian." All of the illustrations are typical National Geographic quality.
