Frances Densmore
Recommended by Tamarack Song
The result of turn-of-the-century field research, this book gives a detailed accounting of the craft, family, and ritual-spiritual life of these people. Frances Densmore, born in 1867, was one of the first ethnologists to specialize in the study of Native music and culture. Her book, first published in 1929, remains an authoritative source for the tribal history, customs, legends, traditions, art, music, economy, and leisure activities of the Chippewa. Paperback, 204 pages.
