Books by Eugene S. Hunn

Draws from the knowledge of Native and non-Native elders and scholars to present an account of interactions between a homeland and its people. This title also presents descriptions of 400 place names. It paints a picture of a way of life that provides context for interpreting pre-contact communities.

This book is about mid-Columbia Indians and their land. The author overturns many of the myths the dominant culture holds about Native Americans and even some misconceptions perpetrated by earlier scholarship in the field.
