This book is the second volume in a series that explores the cultural and historical aspects of the various tribes that inhabited California before the arrival of Europeans. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the social organization, religious practices, and artistic expressions of the different tribes. It also includes detailed descriptions of the languages, customs, and beliefs of each group, as well as their interactions with other tribes and with the natural environment.

The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Native American history, anthropology, or cultural studies.
