Reviews

Reviews of the first edition: "Linguists and anthropologists will value this splendidly organized summarization."--Library Journal "Dictionaries of American Indian languages are relatively rare. Practical dictionaries which serve laymen and which are simultaneously of use to professional linguists are fewer. This dictionary falls into the latter category and is one of the most successful of its kind."--Choice
