Fascinating information includes how to ask a question; how to express past, present, and future; and how each signal related to the daily life of Native American tribes. A fine primmer. Age 8-12. Includes index of signs. 32 pages.. First Edition. Soft Cover. Good. Illus. by Carter, Ben. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall.
