… The introduction notes that information is presented in a generalized form but indicates that differences exist among the Plains tribes. … This fact-filled book resembles a textbook and would serve as a good reference, although some of the language is outdated and inappropriate; e.g. "brave," "the red man," and "costume." A center section of color plates depicts typical dress of various groups. Contains archival photographs. Onderdeel van de reeks(en)Osprey Men-at-Arms (163)
The adoption of a horse culture heralded the golden age of the Plains Indians - an age that was abruptly ended by the intervention of the white man, who forced them from their vast homelands into reservations in the second half of the 19th century. Jason Hook's fascinating text explores the culture of the American Plains Indians, covering all aspects of their society from camp life to the art of war, in a volume packed with fascinating illustrations and photographs, including eight striking full page colour plates by Richard Hook.
