Memories, Myths, and Dreams of an Ojibwe Leader - Berens, William; Hallowell, A. Irving

Clean, tight, unmarked; very minimal wear; appears unread; In the 1930s, Chief William Berens shared with anthropologist A. Irving Hallowell the remarkable history of his life, as well as many personal and dream experiences that held special significance for him. Rooted in the collaboration between Berens, as steward of his oral traditions, and Hallowell, as creator and guardian of their written versions, this book draws the reader into the world - and world view - of Chief Berens, showing how an Aboriginal Christian of the early 20th century could simultaneously take part in "modern" and "traditional" Ojibwe life.
