First published in 1934, this collection of tales was recorded and edited by Thelma Adamson (1901-83), a student of Franz Boas and one of the first women to conduct ethnographic fieldwork in the Pacific Northwest. A major contribution to our knowledge of western Washington Salish oral traditions, Folk-Tales of the Coast Salish contains 190 texts from nineteen consultants--most collected in English or in English translation. The 155 stories represent Upper Chehalis and Cowlitz Salish narrative traditions, primarily myths and tales, and constitute the largest published body of oral literature for either of these groups. Adamson included as many as four variants of the same tale-type, and Adele Froehlich prepared a useful forty-three-page section of abstracts with comparative notes from eight regional text collections. Folk-Tales of the Coast Salish provides a rich data source for those interested in the content and comparative analysis of Native texts told in English. With few exceptions, the tales refer to the time "when all the animals were people." This new edition enhances Adamson's seminal work with the inclusion of a biographical sketch of Adamson and of her friend and noted ethnomusicologist George Herzog, who produced the appended music transcriptions.Binding Type: Paperback

Offer lots of support and traction- perfect gym shoes
So comfortable- they offer a lot of support and I can tell they will last for a long time (and I’m hard on my gym shoes!). I’m actually a female but I sized down and they fit perfectly. I found them on sale and definitely recommend them as they are well worth the price.

Comfortable nike running shoes.
Size: 13, Color: Black/Summit White/Anthracite/Cyber, Size: 13, Color: Black/Summit White/Anthracite/Cyber
Nice and comfortable from the moment that I put them on my feet. Feels like you’re walking on memory foam. You have to buy comfortable shoes when you’re on your feet all day. I do Amazon Flex in. These will be perfect although I have several pairs so that way, the shoe lasts longer. Definitely would buy these in different colors very satisfied.

Good shoe, seems physically big
I really like these shoes. I’ve been able to wear them for about a week now and am really impressed with how they’re holding up. A lot of my shoes start to squeak in a similar amount of time and these still feel like they just came out of the box.
I especially like the heal support, it feels like it’s really gripping the heal nicely
My one complaint is that they seem physically larger than most size 11 shoes from Nike I buy. In spite of fitting the same inside, the actual shoe seems about an inch longer than my other Nike size 11s. It’s not a deal breaker and it doesn’t impact the comfort, it might even make them more comfortable, but they look a bit large on my foot. And if you have a narrow foot, you might be swimming in these.

Can’t Miss Shoe
Size: 11, Color: White/Blue Crystal/Total Orange, Size: 11, Color: White/Blue Crystal/Total Orange
Great looking shoe! Fit to form, I wear a size 101/2 or 11 and I ordered a size 11 and they fit perfectly. Soft and comfortable perfect for walking as I suffer from knee and back pain at 59 years old…. Don’t judge me. Normal width size for me so not sure about the wide fit but the toe room for me is comfortable. Great choice will definitely recommend.

Yes Go Nike!
These Nike men's shoes are very comfortable. It's a pretty versatile shoe. I am able to work out in the gym, go for hikes, walk on the street and run errands all with ease and comfortability. They are sturdy, have good cushion and great support for your joints and back keeping you aligned. They lean on the more narrow side for fit so if you have wide feet they may not work for you. The green around the heal is attractive. The price I paid for the shoes was extremely reasonable making them a great value. I have been using them for a couple of months now and they are still in great shape. Excellent buy!
