The world of the Crow Indians comes to life in this extraordinary
collection of stories from respected elder and famed storyteller
Joseph Medicine Crow. Raised by traditional grandparents, who
remembered life before the reservation days, Medicine Crow as
a child would listen to stories that his grandfather and other
elders told during sweat baths. He also learned about the Indian
wars of earlier years from White Man Runs Him, one of Custer's Crow
scouts. Medicine Crow became a passionate collector of stories and
information about Crow life and history. This volume is a
fascinating and informative collection of legends, humorous tales,
history, and detailed accounts of life and culture, all told from
Crow points of view.
