The cultural toolbox : traditional Ojibwe living in the modern world / Anton Treuer.

Treuer, Anton (author.).

Summary:

"In this book, Anton Treuer tells stories of one Ojibwe family's hunting, gathering, harvesting, and cultural ways and beliefs--without violating protected secrets. Following the four seasons of the year and the four seasons of life, this intimate view of the Ojibwe world reflects a relatable, modern, richly experienced connection to the rest of the planet. It also opens up a new way of understanding these living traditions, which carry thousands of years of cultural knowledge still in the making"-- Provided by publisher.
