In spite of the important role of the Shawnee tribe of American
Indians in the Colonial period and the early years of the American
republic, they have been virtually ignored by the scholarly world.
Anthropologists have paid little attention to the Shawnees, despite
the tribe's rich culture and pivotal position among the other
tribes in eastern North America. In this first comprehensive
account of Shawnee culture, Dr. Howard assembled data concerning
the tribe by utilizing published accounts, documents, maps,
photographs, and paintings; and by visiting present-day Shawnees
and participating in their ceremonies, games and everyday
activities. The work is embellished with musical notations of
Shawnee songs, maps, heirloom photographs and several photographs
taken by the author during his fieldwork. Of particular interest is
a remarkable series of paintings of Shawnee life by gifted Shawnee
artist, Earnest Spybuck.
