Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"The strength of the narrative is the rich detail of ritual description: fasting, sacrifices, vision experiences, the practices of healing. By describing ritual in the context of a man's life, the book gives a uniquely historical understanding of the dynamics of traditional religious life. It provides deeper understanding of the Gros Ventres' way of life and gives a valuable comparative perspective on plains Indian religion."-Raymond J. DeMallie, Western Historical Quarterly -- Raymond J. DeMallie * Western Historical Quarterly *

Contraportada:

Provides real insight into the religion of the nineteenth-century GRos Ventre (Atsina) Indians. Known to themselves as the White Clay People, this little-known tribe now shares the Fort Belknap Reservation in Montana with the Assiniboines.
