1916. With illustrations. In 1877 Schultz went to Montana for the
summer to buffalo hunt. He ended up staying and became fascinated
with the Indian life and joined the Blackfeet tribe. He learned to
speak the Blackfeet language and married a Pikuni (Blackfeet)
woman. He became a recorder of the open West romance and writer of
stories of the at-large Indians. Often men like Schultz were
characterized as hangers-on or romantic reporters; their lives and
work show a more dedicated purpose-to know and record the last of
the Indian culture in its native landscape even as the culture was
subsumed by white settlement, changed by forced moves to
reservations, or even outlawed. Contents: I. Two Medicines: Hugh
Monroe; The Woman Who Earned a Man's Name; and The Story of the
Thunder Medicine. II. Pu-Nak-Ik-Si (Cutbank): How Mountain Chief
Found His Horses; White Fur and His Beaver Clan; The Story of the
Bad Wife; Old Man and the Woman. III. Ki-Nuk-Si Is-I-Sak-Ta (Little
