Description

Book Synopsis
For more than a century, the Northern Arapaho people lived on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming - the fourth largest reservation in the country. This book draws together aspects of the Northern Arapahos' world - myth, language, art, ritual, identity, and history - to offer a vivid picture of a culture that has endured and changed over time.
