The 142 b&w photographs collected here were taken in the 1920s and 30s by physician and photographer Thomas Marquis, who spent more than a decade on the Northern Cheyenne reservation in Lame Deer, Montana. Anthropologist Liberty who taught on the reservation in the 1950s, offers scholarly captions to the photos depicting early reservation life for this formerly nomadic tribe. Alongside her text, commentary from former tribal president John Woodenlegs and other tribal elders give stories to the subjects, many of whom were personal friends, and offer rare insight into dwindling Northern Cheyenne historical tradition. Oversize: 9x9". This is a paperback reprint of the 2006 cloth edition. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
