The authoress traveled extensively for about a decade doing what I feel was her due diligence, gathering this 'offering' for her Native American People groups. However, this could also be for those others who care and wish to learn of these people and their culture.
Matika Wilbur has arranged her collection of brilliantly commemorative photos, marking and proudly presenting many of the Native Peoples such as the Assiniboine, Chippewa, Cree, Osage Nations, Apache, Swinomish, Tulalip and so many more that she has met, interviewed and shared food and time with. Each has short snippets of write-up explanation as to their contributions to teaching the next generations, reviving, empowering and furthering their culture.
I believe this compilation would be a great gift for anyone and could be left on a coffee table for the interested to peruse in bits and bites as they work their way through this mammoth project. Speaking of 'project,' readers will also become privy to understanding the book's title should they choose to invest in a copy.
