4.9/5 (18821 ratings)

Description:A sedentary fishing tribe in the plateau and mountain country of central Idaho, northeastern Oregon, and southeastern Washington, the Nez Perces were transformed by the acquisition of the horse into a tribe which hunted on the plains and assimilated much of the buffalo culture. In the mountains their traditional enemies were the Shoshonis; on the plains they fought the Sioux and were allied with the crows. They were outstanding horsemen, and perhaps their most notable accomplishments were in horse breeding and in their development, through selective breeding, of that famous spotted horse, the Appaloosa. Haines has made a genuine effort to make imaginative and sympathetic use of the few sources that tell the internal story of what the Nez Perces thought, felt, and did. He succeeds so well that the reader, for a change, finds himself looking eastward with the Nez Perces instead of riding westward in the vanguard of the new civilization.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
