First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 317-332 pages with bibliography. Royal octavo (10" x 6 3/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Ethnology Volume XXXVII Number 4 complete issue. First edition. The Nuu-chah-nulth of the Northwest Coast attained a high degree of political organization. Hereditary chiefs had great power and influence often extending beyond their own communities. The ideology of the chieftainship, set forth here in a historical narrative, is examined. Chiefs are symbolically associated with whales, and the themes of whaling, giantism, magic, and generosity are connected with chiefly power. The distinction between legitimate and illegitimate chiefs is clearly drawn, with reference to the whale-chief affinities. The telling of the narrative is linked to contemporary political issues facing the Nuu-chah-nulth. Condition: Light edge wear with bumped corners, head page ends soiled else very good.
