""Social Life and Ceremonial Bundles of the Menomini Indians"" is a comprehensive study of the Menomini people, a Native American tribe from the Great Lakes region of the United States. The book is written by Alanson Skinner, an anthropologist who lived among the Menomini for several years in the early 20th century.
