A note to scholars, tribal leaders, marketing executives, media:

Anyone wishing to use the information on gaming mythology discussed here may do so as long as they credit Gambler Way: Indian Gaming in Mythology, History, and Archaeology in North America, Boulder: Johnson Books, 1996; as well as, "Gambling and Spirituality, A New Anthropological Perspective," by Kathryn Gabriel, http://www.nmia.com/~kgabriel, 1998. The book is extensively annotated and contains a comprehensive bibliography on more than a hundred gambling myths, so getting hold of a copy of the book would be advantageous to any study of Native American gaming mythology. Please write to the publisher for permission to use illustrations and photographs and for proper references for this artwork.

The book, Gambler Way, is out of print, but a very few copies are still available for $54.95, plus shipping and handling. Contact the author for your signed copy.

Anyone wishing to quote chapter one, Marietta Wetherill: Life Among the Navajos of Chaco Canyon, should give appropriate credit to University of New Mexico Press of Albuquerque, New Mexico (paperback, 1997) and Johnson Books of Boulder, Colorado (original printing, 1992). Please write to the publisher for permission to use photographs and for proper references for this artwork.

Thank you.
