  The adoption of a horse culture heralded the golden age of the Plains Indians - an age abruptly ended by the intervention of the white man, who forced them from their vast homelands into reservations in the second half of the 19th century. This text explores the culture of American Plains Indians, from camp life to conquest. It features numerous illustrations and photographs, including eight full-page colour plates with five pages of accompanying commentaries detailing dress and equipment.
