California Athabascan Groups by Martin A. Baumhoff is a comprehensive exploration into the Athabascan groups of California. Baumhoff delves deeply into their unique history, culture, traditions, and societal structures. His detailed account offers readers a profound understanding of these indigenous communities, shedding light on their contributions and challenges in the broader context of California's diverse history.

This bibliography brings together the relevant materials in linguistics, anthropology, archaeology, folklore, and ethnomusicology for the Athapaskan languages. It consists of approximately 5,000 entries, of which one-fourth have been annotated, as well as maps and census illustrations.

A comprehensive survey of California Indian native cultures, discussing their origins, traditions, beliefs, daily life, struggles, and culture.

This volume contains Sapir's full edition of Hupa texts, with complete linguistic and textual annotations. The texts are accompanied by an analytic lexicon - a complete inventory of all stems and derivational bases contained in the corpus - and a detailed ethnographic glossary.

An introduction to the history, culture, and people of the many Indian tribes that inhabited the region from the Arctic through the northern interior of Canada to coastal Alaska, British Columbia, Washington, and Oregon.

Thirteen of the chapters that comprise the contents of this first volume of Native Languages of the A mericas were originally commissioned by the undersigned in his capacity as Editor of the fourteen volume series (1963-1976), Current Trends in Linguistics. All appeared, in 1973, under Part Three of the quadripartite Vol. 10, subtitled Linguistics in North America. Two additional chaplers are being held over for the volume to follow shortly, devoted to Central and South American lan guages and linguistics, where they more appropriately belong. A fourteenth chapter, on the" Historiography of native North A merican linguistics," was written similarly by invitation, for Vol. 13, subtitled Historiography of Linguistics, published in 1975. Both Volumes 10 and 13 were jointly financed by the United States National Science Foundation and National Endowment for the Humanities, with an enhancing contribution to the former by the Canada Council. The generosity of these funding agencies was, of course, previously acknowledged in my respective Editor's Introductions to the two books mentioned, but cannot be repeated too often: without their welcome and timely assistance, the global project could scarcely have been realized on so comprehensive a scale. The Current Trends in Linguistics series was a long-term venture of Mouton Publishers, of The Hague, under the imaginative in-house direction of Peter de Rid der. Various spin-offs were foreseen, and some of them happily realized.
