Summary: Now offering a thoughtful introduction by Phenocia Bauerle
Comment: First published in 1935, and written by one of the most respected American anthropologists of the twentieth century, The Crow Indians is a classic, brief, and highly accessible introduction to Crow Indian culture, challenges, everyday life, traditions, and much more during the early nineteenth-century. Memorable anecdotes of individual Crow such as Grayboll the great visionary and Yellow-brow the gifted storyteller embellish the more general information drawn from the author's thorough fieldwork and interviews from 1907 to 1931. This superbly presented edition of a classic resource is very highly recommended for inclusion on Native American Studies reading lists and acadmeic library reference shelves, now offers a thoughtful introduction by Phenocia Bauerle, a member of the Crow Nation and the editor of The Way Of The Warrior.

Summary: A look at a culture at it's Zenith before American intrusion
Comment: Back in the early 1900's, Robert Lowie lived with the
Crow, listening to the elders, men & women, speak of the
old times. Even though forced to stay on a tiny portion of
the original Crow territory and no longer having any buffalo
to hunt, the people still practiced their language, religion,
beliefs & customs as always.
This is an excellent, book sized "glimpse" at the Crow or
Absalooka worldview; clan relationships, marriage customs,
religious ceremonies, warrior societies, coyote stories and
more.
