Product Description
This beautiful book takes George Bird Grinnell's classic work on the Cheyenne Indians and condenses it into 240 fully-illustrated pages of his most essential writings. Grinnell was the long-time editor of Field & Stream magazine and helped to establish both the Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks. During his career he documented several tribes of the old West, including this vivid account of the last of the Cheyenne Indians, who were forced to live out their lives as nomads. ... Read more

The Primordial Tradition of the First Peoples
This work, The Cheyenne Indians: Their History and Lifeways, is impressive in its scope and density, bringing together the diverse facets of the Plains Indians--the Cheyenne--into an integral unity illuminating the fullness of their traditional ways. This work goes beyond the interest of Native American or Cheyenne studies, for it presents a way of life that offered psychological stability and spiritual certitude which are wholly lacking in the modern and post-modern world. The contemporary world can benefit much from this work. We owe much to the indigenous peoples who continue to live mostly outside the "consensus reality" and oftentimes under the harshest circumstances in the midst of a compromised world that was not their doing.

It's pleasing to see a detailed history re-done with excellent color illustrations
The lovely illustrated THE CHEYENNE INDIANS provides much color to accompany a classic work, here edited and packed with over a hundred color and sepia photos. George Grinnell's coverage has long been considered one of the most authoritative on the topic, so it's pleasing to see a detailed history re-done with excellent color illustrations to appeal to new audiences and any lending library strong in Native American history and culture.
