| Description: | Select Guide Rating An essential book on California’s Indigenous languages, updated for the first time in over 25 years. Before outsiders arrived, about one hundred distinct Indigenous languages were spoken in California, and many of them are in use today.

It is written to be approachable, entertaining, and informative—useful for people doing language revitalization work in their own communities, for linguists, and for a general readership interested in California’s rich cultural heritage. With significant updates by the author, this is the first new edition of Flutes of Fire in over 25 years. New chapters highlight the exciting efforts of language activists in recent times, as well as contemporary writing in several of California’s Native languages. Both a practical guide and a joy to read, Flutes of Fire is an essential book for anyone who cares about the Indigenous languages of California and their flourishing for many generations to come.
