Mountain Spirit : The Sheep Eater Indians of Yellowstone

Among the native peoples who formerly lived in what is now Yellowstone National Park was a Shoshone group called the Tukudika, or Sheep Eaters. Aimed at general readers, this text describes the way of life of these hunter-gatherers. Archaeologist Loendorf (New Mexico State U.) and writer-editor Stone also use archaeological evidence to dispel some common misconceptions about this group. Paintings by Davd̕ Joaqu̕n illustrate the volume. Annotation 2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
