Reviews

These carefully edited texts, in eight Algonquian languages no longer widely spoken, show how pre-modern records can be made accessible to readers interested in the traditional narratives and linguistic styles of an earlier time. They provide models for future philological studies as well as reliable data on some little-known languages. David H. Pentland, professor of Algonquian studies at the University of Manitoba --David H. Pentland (03/05/2015)
