Excerpt from Tribes of the Extreme Northwest, And, Tribes of Western Washington and Northwestern Oregon During the past ten years much of my time has been spent among the Indians of the Rocky Mountain region. In the earlier years I collected many short vocabularies of the various tribes with whom I met. From time to time, as opportunity afforded, many of these vocabularies were enlarged. I soon learned to enlist Indians in my party, and to seize every opportunity of conversing with them in their own language, in order that I might acquire as much knowledge of their tongues as possible. A large number of vocabularies were collected, some embracing but a few hundred words, others two or three thousand each. These Indians, among whom I traveled, belonged chiefly to one great family - the Numas, a stock embracing many languages, and several of the languages having more than one dialect. I also made notes on the grammatic characteristics of these languages to the extent of my opportunity. In the mean time some of my assistants collected vocabularies furnishing important additional material. Much of this related to families other than the one in which I was making especial studies. In such a hasty review of the general literature of this subject as I was able to make, my attention was attracted to some interesting publications in the Overland Monthly, from the pen of Mr. Stephen Powers, and soon a correspondence was begun, which finally resulted in my receiving from that gentleman a large amount of linguistic and other ethnographic material, the results of his labors for many years among the Indians of California. From time to time other vocabularies were sent me from various persons throughout the Rocky Mountain region.

The Native peoples of the Pacific Northwest inhabit a vast region extending from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, and from California to British Columbia. For more than two decades, A Guide to the Indian Tribes of the Pacific Northwest has served as a standard reference on these diverse peoples. Now, in the wake of renewed tribal self-determination, this revised edition reflects the many recent political, economic, and cultural developments shaping these Native communities. From such well-known tribes as the Nez Perces and Cayuses to lesser-known bands previously presumed "extinct," this guide offers detailed descriptions, in alphabetical order, of 150 Pacific Northwest tribes. Each entry provides information on the history, location, demographics, and cultural traditions of the particular tribe. Among the new features offered here are an expanded selection of photographs, updated reading lists, and a revised pronunciation guide. While continuing to provide succinct histories of each tribe, the volume now also covers such contemporary—and sometimes controversial—issues as Indian gaming and NAGPRA. With its emphasis on Native voices and tribal revitalization, this new edition of the Guide to the Indian Tribes of the Pacific Northwest is certain to be a definitive reference for many years to come.
