Until the last two centuries, the human landscapes of the Great Plains were shaped solely by Native Americans, and since then the region has continued to be defined by the enduring presence of its Indigenous peoples. The Encyclopedia of the Great Plains Indians offers a sweeping overview, across time and space, of this story in 123 entries drawn from the acclaimed Encyclopedia of the Great Plains, together with 23 new entries focusing on contemporary Plains Indians, and many new photographs. Here are the peoples, places, processes, and events that have shaped lives of the Indians of the Great Plains from the beginnings of human habitation to the present--not only yesterday's wars, treaties, and traditions but also today's tribal colleges, casinos, and legal battles. In addition to entries on familiar names from the past like Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse, new entries on contemporary figures such as American Indian Movement spiritual leader Leonard Crow Dog and activists Russell Means and Leonard Peltier are included in the volume. Influential writer Vine Deloria Sr., Crow medicine woman Pretty Shield, Nakota blues-rock band Indigenous, and the Nebraska Indians baseball team are also among the entries in this comprehensive account. Anyone wanting to know about Plains Indians, past and present, will find this an authoritative and fascinating source.

Beautiful, sturdy and comfortable!
I am very satisfied with this bag! I honestly thought that because the price was so low that it would be more of a lightweight beach bag, however, it is very sturdy and holds so many things. The straps are very thick and comfortable. There are a few pockets inside zippered pockets of some side pockets and a front zipper pocket. I get so many compliments on this bag. Two of my friends actually bought the same bag! I honestly want to buy another one just in case somewhere down the road something ever happens to this one because I am obsessed with it. I use it every day for work is very easy to clean as well. It’s almost like a neoprene type of fabric so it wipes off very easily. I highly recommend this product.

Works great for me
Color: 06 - Black
I love the size of this purse. Not too big but big enough to hold what I need. The compartment for credits cards and drivers license works better than carrying a wallet. I'm really happy I purchased this. Works better than any designer bag and for a lots less money.
