Summary
Filled with full-color photographs, a vibrant and exciting book recreates daily life in a Plains Indian village in 1868 by introducing readers to Real Bird and his family, who are part of a Northern Cheyenne tribe in southeastern Montana, and the various roles and responsibilities they have, from raising crops and building a tipi to making crafts and performing spiritual rituals.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
More than 130 full-color photographs adorn this handsome re-creation of daily life in a Plains Indian village in 1868. Readers will meet Real Bird and his family, part of a Northern Cheyenne tribe in southeastern Montana. Each member has an important role: Men prepare to become warriors and hunters, while women learn to raise crops and build a home-a tipi-from poles and buffalo hides. The clothes the family wears, from elaborate ceremonial headdresses to colorful beaded moccasins; the foods they eat; the games they play; the crafts and jewelry they make; and the spiritual rituals they perform are among the many topics included. This large-format book, with clear text and informative sidebars, provides a detailed pictorial account of the Plains Indian life more than a century ago.
