Summary <DIV> The most detailed and well-illustrated study of material culture for any northern Athabascan language group to date, Gwich'in Athabascan Implements reproduces pre- and early post-contact tools that are historically important to the Athabaskan people. A long-term collaboration between anthropologist Thomas O'Brien and Athabascan elder David Salmon, this volume provides more than one hundred one-to-one sketches of a wide variety of implements, many of which are no longer commonly found in use. </DIV>
