Neither Wolf Nor Dog : American Indians, Environment, and Agrarian Change

The book focuses on three diverse Native American groups, the Northern Ute, Hupa, and Papago - and in particular explores the ways in which these peoples responded to social, subsistence, and environmental changes entailed by settled reservations and allotted agriculture, and how this helps to reveal how American Indians in general responded to these cultural changes. Lewis tells the story not of a past civilization, but one that has adapted and evolved and continues to do so this day.
