Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description:
David J. Wishartâs Great Plains Indians covers thirteen thousand years of fascinating, dynamic, and often tragic history.
From a hunting and gathering lifestyle to first contact with Europeans to land dispossession to claims cases, and much more, Wishart takes a wide-angle look at one of the most significant groups of people in the country. Myriad internal and external forces have profoundly shaped Indian lives on the Great Plains. Those forcesâthe environment, religion, tradition, guns, disease, government policyâhave written their way into this history. Wishart spans the vastness of Indian time on the Great Plains, bringing the reader up to date on reservation conditions and rebounding populations in a sea of rural population decline. Â
Great Plains Indians is a compelling introduction to Indian life on the Great Plains from thirteen thousand years ago to the present.Â
