A near-fine volume in a near-fine DJ. Dust jacket in Mylar jacket protector. ; The Lamar Series in Western History; Large 8vo 9" - 10" tall; 530 pages; "Red Cloud, Crazy Horse, and Sitting Bull are iconic figures in the American imagination, but in this groundbreaking book they emerge as something different: the architects of Lakota America, an expansive and enduring Indigenous regime that commanded human fates in the North American interior for generations. In this first complete account of the Lakota Indians, Pekka Hmlinen traces their rich and often surprising history from the early sixteenth to the early twenty-first century. He explores the Lakotas roots as marginal hunter-gatherers and reveals how they reinvented themselves twice: first as a river people who dominated the Missouri Valley, Americas great commercial artery, and thenin what was Americas first sweeping westward expansionas a horse people who ruled supreme on the vast high plains."
