And even gameslacrosse, hockey and volleyballhave Native American roots. Other clever inventions and innovations include the following: Sunscreen Surgical blades Diapers Asphalt Megaphones Hair conditioner With descriptive photos and information-packed text, this book explores eight different categories in which the creativity of First Nations peoples from across the continent led to remarkable inventions and innovations, many of which are still in use today.…
