About this title

Synopsis:

The Arapahoes are an important Plains Indian tribe. Previously neglected in favor of their more hostile allies, the Sioux and the Cheyennes, they have benefited from increasing attention in recent years. In this tribal history Virginia Cole Trenholm traces Arapaho life-ways from prehistoric times in Minnesota and Canada to twentieth-century Wyoming, Montana, and Oklahoma. In a new preface she summarizes the major events for the last Arapaho generation.
