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. Grinell 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.
"The value of such a work as Mr. Grinnell has produced can hardly be overstated."
-New York Times
"In his books . Mr. George Bird Grinnell has portrayed [the Indians] with a master hand; it is hard to see how his work can be bettered."
