The Plains Indian of the Upper Missouri in the
nineteenth-century buffalo days remains the widely recognized
symbol of primitive man par excellence-and the persistent image of
the North American Indian at his most romantic. Fifteen cultural
highlights, each a chapter made from research for a particular
subject and enriched by contemporary illustrations, provide a
sensitive interpretation of tribes such as the Blackfeet, the
Crows, and the Mandans from the decades before Lewis and Clark up
to the present.
In an attempt to understand and record the old culture of the
Indians, the author has developed, over the past 30 years, a
special ethnohistorical approach. The results, as seen here, are
enlightening both for other ethnohistorians and for historians of
more or less conventional bent. This book is abundantly illustrated
from historical sources.
