Pomo Indians of California and Their Neighbors
Vinson Brown
"The Pomo Indians of California" is a book that I stumbled upon. I just, I have always had an interest in native cultures and especially around California. It's just a really honest and really informational look at one tribe of Native Americans, the Pomo Indians who lived in kind of Sonoma and Mendocino Counties, what are those counties today.
And it just thoroughly goes over their culture, their religion, their family structure. How they lived. How they hunted. How they traveled. Their sense of the world, how they related to other tribes and eventually how they're affected by coming of Europeans into their territory.
It's not something that I've studied myself enough to really be too critical of them, both of the authors I think are professors at universities, anthropology and really obviously, well learned on it.
I'd recommend this book to anybody who is kind of interested in the Sonoma-Mendocino County regions and the Native Americans who lived there. I've give "The Pomo Indians of California" five stars.
