4to paperback, 128pp, as new very good oversized stiff paper wraps. Index.frontispiece Map showing approximate location of Plains tribes in early 1800s; locations, artefacts, apparel, weapons, insignia, ornaments, paintings. The author portrays "a culture steeped in myth and the metaphysical, a people attuned to its environment and nomadic existence . [he] looks beyond the legends, to a time before the Indians were forced onto the reservations, when the freedom of a million square miles of rolling grasslands was theirs." A beautifully presented study of some of the best-known Red Indian tribes - the Blackfoot, the Sioux, the Cheyenne - who inhabited the Great Plains of North America.
