DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the 1930s, young anthropologist Ruth Landes crafted this startlingly intimate glimpse into the lives of Ojibwa women, a richly textured ethnography widely recognized as a classic study of gender relations in a native society. Sexuality and violence, marital rights and responsibilities, and more are thoughtfully examined. Landes's pioneering work continues to inspire lively debate today.
