Ancient Tribes of the Klamath Country by Carol B. Howe

Description: Here, for the first time in book form, is the fascinating account - based on evidence and scientific verification - of the people who lived in Southern Oregon and Northern California thousands of years before the Pharaohs of Egypt began building the great pyramids, and before the waters receded making barren a once habitable land. Gradually eroded from the soils - their tools, ornaments, and weapons, developed over countless centuries, have left a permanent record of their distinctive way of life. The magnificent array of photographs and the authentic comment have taken the author many years and many thousand miles - to the Oregon desert and the Fort Rock Valley and into Warner Valley where, scientists later discovered, post-glacial man had lived... to the shores of the Willamette , the Columbia, and the Calapooia rivers... Delightful anecdotes of discovery and a quiet humor are laced into the accounts of these ancient tribes, the Wocas People, the Desert People, the Canoe People of Tule Lake, the Rich Traders of Lower Klamath Lake, and the elusive inhabitants of Lost River Circle, all of whom come vividly alive once more and can never be forgotten again.
