The Amazing Death of Calf Shirt and Other Blackfoot Stories, Three Hundred Years of Blackfoot History

The Amazing Death of Calf Shirt and Other Blackfoot Stories, Three Hundred Years of Blackfoot History

by Hugh A. Dempsey

  • HISTORY
  • 1996
  • PAPER
  • 256 PAGES

A wonderful collection of stories, illuminating the history of the Blackfoot people of the prairies of southern Alberta and northern Montana. From the adventures of warriors to the tragic encounters between the Blackfoot and white settlers, these true-life tales bring together a rich oral tradition. While the earliest of the tales dates to 1690, most offer a refreshing perspective on the events before and after the establishment of reservations in the West.  (USW104, $19.95)
