INDIAN TALK: hand signals of the North American Indians. by Iron Eyes Cody.
Guide to silent language used by Plains

tongues were able to effectively communicate without saying a word.
Alphabetically, 246 words, phrases, and counting methods of 'Indian Sign
Language' are photographically depicted. Sign language was primarily a mechanism
by which Plains groups could conduct trade activities. Sign
language deals with ideas rather than individual words. Each sign or idea unit
must be used in proper sequence and context, and with proper accent and
delivery: the sign for 'question' may mean why, where, what, who, how many, or
can you, will you, depending on the context in which it is used. The sign for
'eat' may mean 'to eat' or 'food.' 150 ills., 112 pages.
