Indian Old-Man Stories: More Sparks from War Eagle's Lodge-Fire (the Authorized Edition)
ISBN: 9780803280014 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 169 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Indians of the northwestern plains always laughed at the tales about Old-man, heard around the lodge fire in the wintertime after sunset. For a powerful character, he was comically flawed. Old-man made the world but sometimes forgot the names of things. Victim and victimizer, he seemed closer to common experience than the awesome god Manitou. Frank B. Linderman thought Old-man was, under different names, a god for many Indian communities. These stories-collected from Chippewa and Cree elders and first published in 1920-are full of wonder at the way things are. Why children lose their...

Recollections of Charley Russell
ISBN: 9780806121123 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The intimate, human memories regarding Charles M. Russell, his genius and eccentricities, which Frank Linderman set down shortly after the death of his good friend, constitute a miscellany of personal insights for which any of Russell's biographers ought to have given his eyeteeth. But in none of the increasingly frequent Russell commentaries, apparently, has use ever been made of these prime source materials. When Russell and Linderman met, it was to be expected a close friendship would result. Their interests, experiences, and natural inclinations were of the same cloth. They loved...
