description: No Word for Time has garnered superlatives from reviewers and influentual Native American figures, who have declared it one of the finest books on Native American spirituality ever written. Evan Pritchard, a descendent of a Micmac chief, aimed to learn more about his own native traditions through studying the language of the Algonquin, the key to their "They don't write in metaphor, they speak it; they don't recite poetry, they live it". The tribes collectively named "Algonquin" once occupied large stretches of North America, and their influence on our culture is vast. This edition includes a new index and afterword, and a beautiful new cover.
