Life in a Plains Camp (Native Nations of North America)
by Bobbie Kalman Author
(From Amazon): Life in a Plains Camp looks at a nomadic community that based its livelihood on hunting buffalo. Constantly on the move, men, women, and children worked together to make sure the entire camp was fed and clothed. Beautiful artwork helps illustrate the daily lives, clothing, homes, spiritual beliefs, and the rich cultural heritage of the plains.
