Upon return to Germany, Aurel Krause published "The Tlingit Indians." In it were rich, detailed descriptions of the Tlingit kinship system, societal structure, village and family life, customs and traditions, subsistence living, arts and crafts, mythology and shamanism, a language glossary, and an extensive bibliography. Aurel's brother, Arthur, sketched many of the illustrations. This enduring comprehensive resource offers the contemporary reader a glimpse into the history and traditions of an important Northwest Coast culture.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"<i>The Tlingit Indians</i> is one of the cornerstone of Tlingit ethnographic research and must in one's library on the subject."</p><p>--Peter L.
