Blackfeet Tales from Apikuni's World

"Schultz first encountered the Blackfeet in Montana Territory in 1877 when he was seventeen, and he lived among them off and on for the next seventy years until his death. These tales are based on his experiences with the Blackfeet, who gave him the name Apikuni. Schultz's Indian alter ego, Apikuni, plays a role in many of the stories, usually under the name Spotted Robe. Though he was neither a historian nor an ethnologist, Schultz filled his stories with Indian history and with detailed descriptions of the daily life and culture of the Blackfeet."--BOOK JACKET.
