The publication of this book was considered by many Plains Indian specialists to be "...the most important single publishing venture, by volume, of the Great Plains". The pictographic record, a series of more than 400 drawings and script notations that illustrate all aspects--warring and peaceful--of Sioux life, was made in an old ledger book by Amos Bad Heart Bull between 1890 and 1913, and is stunningly reproduced in this magnificent tome.
