Cedar trees are simply amazing.  I blogged about making fire with the inner bark. Far more interesting is what else can be done with parts of this tree.  Included in my blog post is a book called "Cedar" by Hilary Stewart.

"Cedar is a significant book that inspires awe not only for the versatility of the tree but also for the resourcefulness of the people." —Rotunda magazine, Royal Ontario Museum

Chief Lelooska wrote "Spirit of the Cedar People" and "Echoes of the Elders."  Each book includes a CD of Chief Lelooska telling the stories. He is an incredible storyteller.
