First comprehensive and up-to-date history of Crow Tribe. This book, through the experiences of the Crow Nation, relates to all native tribes as it reflects present-day governmental policies still adversely affecting American Indians. An eye opener into what is going on in Indian Country today. Anthological in parts, sprinkled with quotes from many others expressing the suppression, abuse and corruption of the Bureau of Indian Affairs towards American Indians for nearly 200 years, starting out in the War Department. In 1881 Helen Hunt Jackson presented her book, A Century of Dishonor, to all the members of Congress in regard to governmental policies toward indigenous peoples. In 1992-1993 the limited edition of Apsaalooka, the Crow Nation Then and Now, was presented as complimentary copies to all members of Congress, the President and Vice-president, etc. These two books represent 200 years of dishonor. As a result, the authors of Apsaalooka...are now being sought for help in regard to problems of Indians caused by the dominant society. Education and communication, a key to solving problems, is what this book is all about. A collector's book, one of a kind.

Beginning in 1907, the anthropologist Robert H. Lowie visited the Crow Indians at their reservation in Montana. He listened to tales that for many generations had been told around campfires in winter. Vivid tales of Old-Man-Coyote in his various guises; heroic accounts of Lodge-Boy and the Thunderbirds; supernatural stories about Raven-Face and the Spurned Lover; and other tales involving the Bear-Woman, the Offended Turtle, the Skeptical Husband--all these were recorded by Lowie.

The Apsáalooke people, also known as the Crow, are noted for their bravery and artistry, twin pillars of a centuries-old culture rooted in the landscape of the Northern Plains. This book, published in conjunction with a multi-site exhibition jointly organized by the Field Museum and the Neubauer Collegium at the University of Chicago, offers a rich narrative of the Apsáalooke paste with a keen eye on issues that concern present-day Apsáalooke identity. Apsáalooke Women and Warriors features contributions by contemporary Apsáalooke artists, intellectuals, and writers. Together, they constitute a major statement on the cosmologies, iconographies, and lifeways of the Apsáalooke people past, present--and, above all--future.

For nearly ten years between 1907 and 1931, anthropologist Robert H. Lowie lived among the Crow Indians, listening to the old men and women tell of times gone forever. Lowie learned much about what had been, and still was, a society remarkable for its variability and cohesion, and for its resistance to the encroachments of white civilization. Written with clarity and vigor, Lowie's study makes instantly accessible what had taken him years to discover. He sacrificed neither personal sensitivity nor narrative skill to scientific scruples, but brought his scientific work to life. Crow religion, ceremonies, taboos, kinship bonds, tribal organization, division of labor, codes of honor, and rites of courtship and wedlock receive their due. The Crow Indians is a masterpiece of ethnography, foremost for Lowie's portrayal of the different personalities he encountered: Gray-bull and his marital troubles; the great visionary Medicine-crow; Yellow-brow, the gifted storyteller; and many more.
