Coast Salish Canoes
Coast Salish Canoes
This classic is now reissued as an authorized Second Edition. This version includes even more historic photos, with many full-color images, diagrams, and reflections from the author in a "Forty Years Later" section.
Since it was first published by Seattle's Center for Wooden Boats in 1991 to preserve the masterful forms of First Nations' watercraft, a major renaissance of Northwest Coast Native Canoeing has blossomed. Yet this book's value remains as it offers a rich historic perspective, archival photographs and carefully recorded drawings of ancient style representative canoes. This book has become a "Must-Have" to better understand the extraordinary quality of the ancestors' achievements.
Over three decades, the limited-edition monograph, Coast Salish Canoes became a collector's item. "The best overview of the lore, technology and cultural heritage of local Native American watercraft.... [O]f great interest to maritime historians, museums, educators and anyone interested in Northwest Coast Native American art and culture." -- Association of King Country Community Museums.
