Menominee Bibliography

Disclaimer: I know that the cultural/historical part of this bibliography is not complete. I do think, though, that the linguistics part is fairly exhaustive -- but nonetheless I'm sure there are things out there that I haven't found yet. If you know of anything else (or have a correction to tell me about), just email me and I'll be happy to add or fix it.

Sources: I used various sources to compile this, but the most important is Bibliography of Algonquian Linguistics, 1982, David H. Pentland and H. Christoph Wolfart, Winnipeg: The University of Manitoba Press; as well as the updates to that that appear in the Algonquian and Iroquoian Linguistics newsletter.
