Book The North American Indian  The Apsaroke  or Crows  The Hidatsa

Download or read book The North American Indian The Apsaroke or Crows The Hidatsa written by Edward S. Curtis and published by . This book was released on 1909 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[A] comprehensive and permanent record of all the important tribes of the United States and Alaska that still retain to a considerable degree their primitive customs and traditions. The value of such a work, in great measure, will lie in the breadth of its treatment, in its wealth of illustration, and in the fact that it represents the result of personal study of a people who are rapidly losing the traces of their aboriginal character and who are destined ultimately to become assimilated with the 'superior race.' It has been the aim to picture all features of the Indian life and environment--types of the young and the old, with their habitations, industries, ceremonies, games, and everyday customs ... Though the treatment accorded the Indians by those who lay claim to civilization and Christianity has in many cases been worse than criminal, a rehearsal of these wrongs does not properly find a place here"--General introduction.

Love has eluded her, until the merciless Alpha twins of the Midnight Pack, Alpha Kaizelus and Alpha Zeferion, step into her life. But these twins are not her saviors; they are the ones who took everything from her. When faced with a choice between her own life and the safety of her rogue pack, Irina sacrifices herself to the twins. Only, fate has a cruel twist in store—they are her mates. Anger and instinct war within her as she plots to break their bond, but a world she never knew existed opens before her eyes, and the twins reveal hidden depths. Alpha Kai and Alpha Zef have always shared everything, but now they battle for Irina’s heart. It's a showdown of love and power, and only one twin can win her over. With a past shrouded in mystery, newfound abilities, impostors, and a vampire playing a dangerous game, Irina discovers she's far from what she believed. As revenge and love collide, will Irina let go of her thirst for vengeance and surrender to fate's whims? Or will she forsake her heart and let revenge consume her? Book 2 of the Destined Series is a tale of passion, power, and the enduring struggle between destiny and desire, a story that can be savored on its own or as a continuation of the gripping saga. Dare you follow Irina’s journey?

Book Red Crow

Download or read book Red Crow written by Hugh A. Dempsey and published by Saskatoon : Fifth House. This book was released on 1995 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Red Crow: Warrior Chief is the only full-scale popular biography of the great Blood Chief, telling his story from childhood to his final years, when he fought to equip his people for life in a new and strange world. A fearless and successful warrior as a young man, Red Crow went on to become a wise leader who guided his people through the difficult early years on the reserve, leading them toward better education and self-sufficiency. From 1870 to 1900, Red Crow was head chief of the Blood tribe, part of the Blackfoot Nation. As a warrior, diplomat, and statesman, he dominated the affairs of the largest reserve in Canada for more than two decades, keeping his people at peace, yet never letting them surrender their pride and dignity. He was an important leader and a significant Canadian, yet until this book was first published in 1980, Red Crow had been virtually ignored in the pages of history. Hugh Dempsey's twenty years of research and extensive interviews with members of the Blood tribe - including Frank Red Crow, the chief's adopted son - resulted in this landmark biography of a man whose wisdom, strength, and wise counsel are still felt today on the Blood Reserve in southern Alberta.

  • Author : George R. R. Martin
  • Publisher : Bantam

  • ISBN : 0553582038
  • Pages : 785 pages

Download or read book A Feast for Crows written by George R. R. Martin and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2007-10-30 with total page 785 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE BOOK BEHIND THE FOURTH SEASON OF THE ACCLAIMED HBO SERIES GAME OF THRONES Few books have captivated the imagination and won the devotion and praise of readers and critics everywhere as has George R. R. Martin’s monumental epic cycle of high fantasy that began with A Game of Thrones. Now, in A Feast for Crows, Martin delivers the long-awaited fourth book of his landmark series, as a kingdom torn asunder finds itself at last on the brink of peace . . . only to be launched on an even more terrifying course of destruction. A Feast for Crows It seems too good to be true. After centuries of bitter strife and fatal treachery, the seven powers dividing the land have decimated one another into an uneasy truce. Or so it appears. . . . With the death of the monstrous King Joffrey, Cersei is ruling as regent in King’s Landing. Robb Stark’s demise has broken the back of the Northern rebels, and his siblings are scattered throughout the kingdom like seeds on barren soil. Few legitimate claims to the once desperately sought Iron Throne still exist—or they are held in hands too weak or too distant to wield them effectively. The war, which raged out of control for so long, has burned itself out. But as in the aftermath of any climactic struggle, it is not long before the survivors, outlaws, renegades, and carrion eaters start to gather, picking over the bones of the dead and fighting for the spoils of the soon-to-be dead. Now in the Seven Kingdoms, as the human crows assemble over a banquet of ashes, daring new plots and dangerous new alliances are formed, while surprising faces—some familiar, others only just appearing—are seen emerging from an ominous twilight of past struggles and chaos to take up the challenges ahead. It is a time when the wise and the ambitious, the deceitful and the strong will acquire the skills, the power, and the magic to survive the stark and terrible times that lie before them. It is a time for nobles and commoners, soldiers and sorcerers, assassins and sages to come together and stake their fortunes . . . and their lives. For at a feast for crows, many are the guests—but only a few are the survivors.

Download or read book Six Short Stories written by Manoochehr Agah, M.D. and published by Austin Macauley Publishers. This book was released on 2023-11-10 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most parents start reading books to the children around two years of age, for the most part, the characters in the books are imaginary or fanciful to encourage good behavior such as sharing and tolerance. As I have seen in my grandchildren with improvement in reading skill, there is a tendency to move on to more advanced complicated fiction readings, supernatural mystical and space stories, less attention given to writing about our environment and its real inhabitants. Stories about real characters that they can see, communicate, and interact with. In writing these six short stories, I hope I can bridge the imaginary reading of early age into young adult reading habits. All through the years of my pediatric practice, I was ,as I am now, convinced that the proper content of reading material plays an important role in children’s education and development.

Book Invisible Natives

    Book Details:
  • Author : Armando José Prats
  • Publisher : Cornell University Press
  • Release : 2018-08-06
  • ISBN : 1501729535
  • Pages : 343 pages

Download or read book Invisible Natives written by Armando José Prats and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-08-06 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This incisive, provocative, and wide-ranging book casts a critical eye on the representation of Native Americans in the Western film since the genre's beginnings. Armando José Prats shows the ways in which film reflects cultural transformations in the course of America's historical encounter with "the Indian." He also explores the relation between the myth of conquest and American history. Among the films he discusses at length are Northwest Passage, Stagecoach, The Searchers, Hombre, Hondo, Ulzana's Raid, The Last of the Mohicans, and Dances With Wolves.Throughout, Prats emphasizes the irony that the Western seems to be able to represent Native Americans only by rendering them absent. In addition, he points out that Native Americans who appear in Westerns are almost always male; Native women rarely figure into the plot, and are often portrayed by white women rendered "Indian" by narrative necessity. Invisible Natives offers an intriguing view of the possibilities and consequences—as well as the historical sources and cultural origins—of the Western's strategies for evading the actual portrayal of Native Americans.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Katherine Addison, author of The Goblin Emperor, returns with The Angel of the Crows, a fantasy novel of alternate 1880s London, where killers stalk the night and the ultimate power is naming. This is not the story you think it is. These are not the characters you think they are. This is not the book you are expecting. In an alternate 1880s London, angels inhabit every public building, and vampires and werewolves walk the streets with human beings in a well-regulated truce. A fantastic utopia, except for a few things: Angels can Fall, and that Fall is like a nuclear bomb in both the physical and metaphysical worlds. And human beings remain human, with all their kindness and greed and passions and murderous intent. Jack the Ripper stalks the streets of this London too. But this London has an Angel. The Angel of the Crows. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1380. As the king’s parliament debates whether to grant money supplies to the Regent for his war against the French, John of Gaunt orders Sir John Cranston and Brother Athelstan to investigate the murder of the Shrewsbury representatives, as the assassin must be caught before parliament suspects the Regent himself. Unfortunately, Sir John and Brother Athelstan have their own problems to deal with: the coroner is puzzled by a thief stealing cats from Cheapside, while Athelstan is concerned by claims that a devil is prowling his parish. Against a colourful pageantry of medieval court life and the dark slums of London, Sir John and Brother Athelstan pit their wits against a bloody murder and the assassin in the House of Crows.

Book Uniting the Tribes

    Book Details:
  • Author : Frank Rzeczkowski
  • Publisher : University Press of Kansas
  • Release : 2012-05-17
  • ISBN : 0700638024
  • Pages : 304 pages

Download or read book Uniting the Tribes written by Frank Rzeczkowski and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2012-05-17 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Native American reservations on the Northern Plains were designed like islands, intended to prevent contact or communication between various Native peoples. For this reason, they seem unlikely sources for a sense of pan-Indian community in the late-nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries. But as Frank Rzeczkowski shows, the flexible nature of tribalism as it already existed on the Plains subverted these goals and enabled the emergence of a collective "Indian" identity even amidst the restrictiveness of reservation life. Rather than dividing people, tribalism on the Northern Plains actually served to bring Indians of diverse origins together. Tracing the development of pan-Indian identity among once-warring peoples, Rzeczkowski seeks to shift scholars' attention from cities and boarding schools to the reservations themselves. Mining letters, oral histories, and official documents-including the testimony of native leaders like Plenty Coups and Young Man Afraid of His Horses-he examines Indian communities on the Northern Plains from 1800 to 1925. Focusing on the Crow, he unravels the intricate connections that linked them to neighboring peoples and examines how they reshaped their understandings of themselves and each other in response to the steady encroachment of American colonialism. Rzeczkowski examines Crow interactions with the Blackfeet and Lakota prior to the 1880s, then reveals the continued vitality of intertribal contact and the covert-and sometimes overt-political dimensions of "visiting" between Crows and others during the reservation era. He finds the community that existed on the Crow Reservation at the beginning of the twentieth century to be more deeply diverse and heterogeneous than those often described in tribal histories: a multiethnic community including not just Crows of mixed descent who preserved their ties with other tribes, but also other Indians who found at Crow a comfortable environment or a place of refuge. This inclusiveness prevailed until tribal leaders and OIA officials tightened the rules on who could live at-or be considered-Crow. Reflecting the latest trends in scholarship on Native Americans, Rzeczkowski brings nuance to the concept of tribalism as long understood by scholars, showing that this fluidity among the tribes continued into the early years of the reservation system. Uniting the Tribes is a groundbreaking work that will change the way we understand tribal development, early reservation life, and pan-Indian identity.
