Both Boas and Amrine Goertz worked with past and present elders, including Robert Choke, Marion Davis, Peter Heck, Blanche Pete Dawson, and Jonas Secena, in collecting and contextualizing traditional knowledge of the Chehalis people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The elders shared stories with Boas at a critical juncture in Chehalis history, when assimilation efforts during the 1920s affected almost every aspect of Chehalis life. These are stories of transformation, going away, and coming back. The interwoven adventures of tricksters and transformers in Coast Salish narratives recall the time when people and animals lived together in the Chehalis River Valley. Catastrophic floods, stolen children, and heroic rescues poignantly evoke the resiliency of the people who have preserved these stories for generations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Working with contemporary Chehalis peoples, Amrine Goertz has extensively reviewed the work of anthropologists in Western Washington. This important collection examines the methodologies, shortcomings, and limitations of anthropologists’ relationship with Chehalis people and presents complementary approaches to fieldwork and its contextualization.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eList of Illustrations\u003cbr\u003e Preface\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e A Story\u003cbr\u003e xwənÉ\u003cbr\u003e·\u003cbr\u003exwəne: A Story\u003cbr\u003e Bear, Yellow Jacket, and Ant\u003cbr\u003e A Visit to the Skokomish\u003cbr\u003e Gossip\u003cbr\u003e Snowbird\u003cbr\u003e Rabbit and Mountain Lion\u003cbr\u003e Bluejay\u003cbr\u003e Mink\u003cbr\u003e The Flood\u003cbr\u003e Skunk\u003cbr\u003e xwə́n and Raccoon\u003cbr\u003e xwə́n Kills k’\u003cbr\u003ewə́cxwe\u003cbr\u003e xwə́n and Bluejay\u003cbr\u003e S’\u003cbr\u003eyawyu’\u003cbr\u003ewun\u003cbr\u003e xwə́n\u003cbr\u003e One-Legged Monster\u003cbr\u003e Chipmunk\u003cbr\u003e Why the Dog Has Marks on His Paws\u003cbr\u003e The Flood (The Deluge)\u003cbr\u003e The Crows\u003cbr\u003e Untitled Story\u003cbr\u003e Beaver and the Woman\u003cbr\u003e xwə́n and Crane\u003cbr\u003e Raccoon and His Grandmother\u003cbr\u003e The Five Brothers\u003cbr\u003e The Chief and His House\u003cbr\u003e The Way of the q’\u003cbr\u003eway’\u003cbr\u003eÁ\u003cbr\u003eyiɬq’\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e A Farewell Speech\u003cbr\u003e Source Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003e Appendix 1: Lower Chehalis Stories\u003cbr\u003e Appendix 2: Edmond S.
