The Native tribes of
Washington State’s
Olympic Peninsula share
complex histories of trade, religion, warfare, and
kinship Yet few books have
depicted the
indigenous people of this region from a Native perspective.
"Native Peoples of the Olympic Peninsula" introduces readers to nine tribes: the Elwha Klallam, Jamestown S'Klallam, Port Gamble S'Klallam, Skokomish, Squaxin Island, Quinault, Hoh, Quileute, and Makah. Written by members of the Olympic Peninsula Intertribal Cultural Advisory Committee and enhanced by photographs and maps, the book is divided into sections focusing on each of the tribes. Each section relates the tribe's history, its current cultural and political issues, and its tribal heritage programs. Each section also includes information about places to visit and offers suggestions for further reading..
