Publisher: Skyhorse Publishing, 2007
Authored by Edwin Tappan Adney and Howard I. Chapelle
242 pages -- Approx. size: 8.5" by 11"

The work is a detailed scientific and historical study of bark canoes and skin boats used by Indigenous peoples of North America, focusing on construction, materials, regional variations, and cultural significance. This places it squarely within historical and anthropological scholarship, with strong technical elements. It combines Adney’s lifetime of field notes (begun in 1889) with Chapelle’s technical editing and expansion.

As new. This looks un-read. Perfect gift idea. Spotless interior. Please see photos, enlarge and email with any questions. Thanks for looking.
