This book provides a thorough and engaging study of Plains Indian life. It covers both historical and contemporary aspects and contains wide and balanced treatment of the many different tribal groups, including Canadian and southern populations. Daniel J.

It is an essential text for courses on Indians of the Great Plains and relevant for students of anthropology, archaeology, history, and Indigenous studies.

Recensioner i media

"This textbook is the most thorough and detailed student text on the topic, as well as the best organized and balanced in its coverage of the diverse cultural aspects among all the indigenous peoples of the Plains. It has carefully been conceived for undergraduate teaching, but it will also be of interest to graduates and lay readers. Despite its conception as a textbook, it is so rich that it can even be used as a reference book on Plains Indians by non-anthropologists."Joaquín Rivaya-Martínez, Texas State University, USA
