Item description from seller

"Describes an anthropologist's experience with the subarctic Beaver Indians, the Dunne-za. Describes moments in the life of their community, revealing the dynamics of change and stability among them as well as the ideas and assumptions that sustain them. Reflects both the actual quality of Indian experience as well as Ridington's discovery of the metaphors through which the Dunne-za communicate their reality. Speaks vividly to the academic world of anthropology as well as to all those looking for insights into the meaning of Indian culture and experience." - dust jacket. xvi, 301 pages. References. Index of names. Black and white reproductions of photos. Tight and unmarked with very light wear. Dust jacket now in glossy new archival-grade protection. An attractive example.; 8vo.
