Scope and content

Subseries consists of 32 cassettes, recorded between 1955 and the end of the 1970s, created to accompany the Cree language course developed by C. Douglas Ellis. First published in 1962, the course was revised and reissued in 3 volumes in 2000. Tapes correspond to lessons in Spoken Cree: Level I and Spoken Cree: Level II. Instruction is in the N-Dialect, or Swampy Cree, spoken on the west coast of James Bay. Guidelines for applying lessons to the L-Dialect are given in audio.
