  Each book in the Insights series provides children with a broad range of topics in history, natural history and science. Six pages with fold-out flaps allow children the opportunity to discover historical facts or animal physiology, such as the exact movement an animal makes when it runs, jumps, flies or crawls. This volume explores North American Indians of the plains. It describes their clans, chiefs, rites and troubled relationship with settlers and soldiers, focusing specifically on such historial events as the coming of the railroad and the Battle of Wounded Knee.
