Description: Native Peoples of the Olympic Peninsula: Who We Are traces the nine tribes' common history and each tribe's individual story. This second edition is updated to include new developments since the volume's initial publication--especially the removal of the Elwha River dams--thus reflecting the ever-changing environment for the Native peoples of the Olympic Peninsula.

Brief description: Jacilee Wray, a former anthropologist with the National Park Service at Olympic Peninsula, Washington, is editor of Native Peoples of the Olympic Peninsula: Who We Are and co-editor of Postmistress, Mora, Wash. 1914-1915: Journal Entries and Photographs of Fannie Taylor.

Review Quotes: "A rich introduction to the nine Native groups of the peninsula. . . . [T]he writers communicated their communities' senses of historical consciousness and identity in a format that should result in positive awareness among outside readers and perhaps attract them to the reservations as respectful and knowledgeable visitors."--Pacific Northwest Quarterly
