Book Description:

For many people the Sioux, as warriors and as buffalo hunters, have become the symbol of all that is Indian. They were the heroes of the Great Plains, and they were the villains, too. Royal Hassrick here attempts to describe the ways of the people, the patterns of their behaviour, and the concepts of their imagination.
