Review
A remarkable overview of this vast and complicated region. Reading Fowler's guide is like receiving a private briefing from a master teacher. She summarizes masses of information from archaeologists, historians, cultural anthropologists, and geographers. This book will be an essential tool for anyone interested in exploring the context of Native American life on the Great Plains.

Review

"Fowler challenges stereotypical images [of Indians] by illuminating the diversity of cultures that have existed in this region over a 16,000-year period... highly recommended." -- Library Journal (starred review)

"This third volume in a series of six by Columbia University is an exceptionally concise, scholarly, and very inclusive historical look into the changes that took place in the 'traditional' Plains Indian cultures.... Highly recommended." -- Choice

"Fowler has now produced this excellent guide to all of the Indian tribes of the area... Fowler's important, informative work will help dispel the long-standing stereotype that all the Indians of the Great Plains wore eagle feather headdresses, hunted buffalo from horseback, and lived in conical teepees. The guide will also serve to inform readers that far from disappearing after the Massacre at Wounded Knee, the tribes of the Great Plains exist vibrantly today." -- F. Todd Smith, Great Plains Research

"A well-formed baseline of knowledge about the Great Plains people, which... evidences the valuable contribution of Fowler's work." -- Jacki Rand, The Annals of Iowa
