Abstract: Brief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This is an excellent srudy of the Navajo in the early to
mid-twentieth century. The book was undertaken as part of the Indian Education Research
Project to compare personality development in five American tribes to help evaluate the
Government Indian Administration. This book 'deals primarily with the situational and
cultural context of Navajo life.' A companion volume 'Children of The People' deals with
personality formation.
