NELSON, JOHN LOUW. _Rhythm for Rain_, Boston, 1937. Based on
ten years spent with the Hopi Indians, this study of their
life is a moving story of humanity. OP.
PEARCE, J. E. _Tales That Dead Men Tell_, University of Texas
Press, Austin, 1935. Eloquent, liberating to the human mind;
something rare for Texas scholarship. Pearce was professor of
anthropology at the University of Texas, an emancipator from
prejudices and ignorance. It is a pity that all the college
students who are forced by the bureaucrats of Education--
Education spelled with a capital E--"the unctuous elaboration
of the obvious"--do not take anthropology instead. Collegians
would then stand a chance of becoming educated.
PETRULLO, VICENZO. _The Diabolic Root: A Study of Peyotism,
the New Indian Religion, among the Delawares_, University of
Pennsylvania Press, Philadelphia, 1934. The use of peyote has
now spread northwest into Canada. See Milly Peacock Stenberg's
_The Peyote Culture among Wyoming Indians_, University of
Wyoming Publications, Laramie, 1946, for bibliography.
REICHARD, GLADYS A. _Spider Woman_, 1934, and _Dezba Woman of
the Desert_, 1939.
