Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. The author provides a detailed description and analysis of dugout canoes made and used by the Makah people in the Northern Pacific region. The analysis in this book is primarily concerned with six main types of canoes, each with its unique purpose, advantages, and disadvantages. The six types are named: the war canoe, the freight canoe, the trolling canoe, the shovel-nose canoe, the one-man canoe, and the children's canoe. While it focuses on these six types of canoes found within this indigenous community, the book also examines the distribution and spread of these canoes to other coastal and riverine communities in the region. The in-depth study provides a nuanced understanding of the importance of canoe technology and seafaring in the culture and history of the Makah people.
