Originally published as Bulletin 156 of the Bureau of American Ethnology, Smithsonian Institution in 1953, this volume explores the celebration of the Eagle Dance in New York and Canada during the 1930s and its relationship to the widespread Calumet Dance of the 17th century. Also included is Kurath 's detailed analysis of the Eagle Dance music and choreography, based on Fenton's recordings and on her own observations of local performances.
