Credits

Special thanks to the Assiniboine and Sioux Tribes of the Fort Peck Indian Reservation, Montana, for suggesting the concept of the original book, to Tom Kerr for illustrating the original book, and to the reviewers and many cultural experts from tribes across America who helped make the book a success. Thanks also to Jim Garvie of the Indian Health Service (IHS) for carrying the concept a step further by suggesting the material might also become the foundation for a web site. Thanks to IHS webmaster Leonard Thurman for making the site a reality.
