the indian pics are more intersting than the signs: This book basically has some vocabulary for indian "signs". I am not sure if the real indians even use any of these signs. The old drawings were kind of neat and reminded me of an old schoolbook.
William Tomkins' INDIAN SIGN LANGUAGE: I have had this book laying around for ages. I have taken it for granted really. But when I think about how well it is written and clearly laid out, with an additional picture writing section at the end of the book, it makes me wonder why I don't take better care of it. I'm amazed it's still in print and CHEAP! Great for kids but also a nice intro for adults as well. Boy Scouts could use this as part of their achievement training. One big plus is the photographs and anecdotes of William Tomkins and his friends, the Lakota. You can't lose with this book.
