The raven & the totem : by John Smelcer ; illustrated by Larry Vienneau and Susie Bevins

Summary: "Elias Canetti, Nobel Laureate of 1981, said "Tribes, sometimes consisting of just a few hundred people, have left us a wealth that we certainly do not merit, for it is our fault that they have died out or are dying before our eyes, eyes that scarcely look. They have preserved their mythical experiences until the very end, and the strange thing is that there is hardly anything that benefits us more, hardly anything that fills us with as much hope as these early incomparable creations... They have left us an inexhaustable spiritual legacy.""--
