Download or read book Exploits of Plenty Coups Chief of the Crows written by Willem Wildschut and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-11-07 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the personal recollections of Apsaalooke Chief Plenty Coups as he described them to Willem Wildschut in the early 1920s. The individual narratives focus on Plenty Coups's early years as a warrior when he rose to prominence within the tribe and conclude before he came to be regarded as the principal chief of the entire Apsaalooke Nation in 1907, a position he held after the death of Chief Pretty Eagle in 1904 until his own death in 1932. Autobiographical information of Native leaders of Plenty Coups's status is rare, and without such direct personal narratives, scholars are forced to use external sources in an attempt to reconstruct and contextualize major events as well as the minutiae of daily activities that an individual considered to be pivotal in his or her life. In this particular instance, Plenty Coups's recollections contain information not just about his personal exploits but also provide a wealth of cultural information about the Apsaalooke at the apex of the Plains Indian horse culture in the nineteenth century shortly before the onset of the reservation period. Bill Mercer As former Crow Historian Grant Bulltail noted, "This book records the acts of Plenty Coups who stood in the front ranks of battle to protect our sacred lands and culture." Grant Bulltail

Download or read book Biilaachia White Swan written by Rodney G. Thomas and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2022-11-03 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the Apsaalooke (Crow) men who scouted for the Seventh United States Cavalry in 1876 has been told by historians, with details sometimes distorted or fabricated. Biilaachia--better known as White Swan--survived the Battle of Little Bighorn despite severe wounds. One soldier recalled him standing beside his horse, firing at the Sioux: "He would not mount up and try to get away but stood and fought." White Swan continued to scout off-and-on for the U.S. Army until 1881 and recorded his 22 combat actions in 37 paintings and drawings. Done in traditional Plains warrior biographic style, his complete body of work is presented here for the first time, along with the history behind each depiction. His life is detailed in photographs, some never before published, and four little-known interviews, as well as extensive research about the Apsaalooke people.
Download or read book Two Leggings written by Two Leggings and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1982-01-01 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fur traders observed that no other Indians of the Upper Missouri were so well dressed or bragged of their tribal affiliation as frequently or as vociferously as the Crow. Two Leggings, the teller of the story you are about to read, was above all else a Crow warrior. His story tells us quite as much of tribal values that motivated and guided his actions as it does of his personal escapades. He was one of the last Crow Indians to abandon the warpath.
Download or read book America on the Couch written by Pythia Peay and published by Lantern Books. This book was released on 2015-04-01 with total page 941 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What lies behind America’s historic romance with the gun? Why does it have such a troubled relationship with alcohol and drugs? Why is it so wedded to consumerism and so resistant to the evidence of climate change? What are its enduring myths about individuality, freedom, and independence, and how might we re-imagine our vision of the United States as the “Promised Land” and “The City on the Hill” to reflect a multiculturalism that offers “the last, best hope” for the world? In a two-decades long journey through the American psyche, depth journalist Pythia Peay has asked these and many more questions of no fewer than thirty-six of the world’s leading psychologists and psychoanalysts. From Robert Jay Lifton to Marion Woodman, A. Thomas McLellan to Judith V. Jordan, Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi to June Singer, and James Hillman to Mary Pipher, the thinkers in America on the Couch discuss violence, addiction, the environment, capitalism and consumerism, politics and power, and the soul of America. The result is a uniquely comprehensive, wide-ranging, and compelling kaleidoscope of insights into the psychodynamics of a hegemon in peace and at war, as it confronts the shadows of the American century and charts its way into an uncertain, multi-polar future. Featuring Stephen Aizenstat, John Beebe , Bonnie Bright, Gary S. Bobroff , Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Philip Cushman, Larry Decker, Raymond De Young, Edward Edinger, Michael Eigen, Stephen J.
