This book is geared toward all ages and gives step-by-step instructions on scores of crafts and outdoor skills cultivated by various Native American tribes over the centuries. In the spirit of “creativity kits,” this book outlines the history and purpose of the activity and then shows how to replicate the exact process, whether it's tanning leather; making moccasins; creating tools and utensils, musical instruments, and jewelry; or preparing food. Includes more than 200 illustrations by the author.
