Gelo's Indians of the Great Plains remains the most thorough textbook available on the subject today. This second edition has been fully revised and updated, taking account of modern terminology and new historical developments whilst retaining the depth and coverage established in the first edition. Drawing on rich ethnographic research conducted over decades, Indians of the Great Plains covers both historical and modern cultural aspects of Plains societies. Covering a wide range of tribal groups, including Canadian and Southern populations, the textbook includes poetry, songs and case studies to bring the material alive for the reader. Pedagogical features include chapter summaries, review questions, and an in-depth companion website. Written in an engaging and lively manner, this is the essential textbook for undergraduate students taking an anthropology course on the Indians of the Great Plains. It will also be of use to students taking courses on the history and archaeology of the Great Plains.
