Daily Life in a Plains Indian Village 1868

More than 130 full-color photographs adorn this handsome re-creation of daily life in a Plains Indian village in 1868. Readers will meet Real Bird and his family, part of a Northern Cheyenne tribe in southeastern Montana. Each member has an important role: Men prepare to become warriors and hunters, while women learn to raise crops and build a home-a tipi-from poles and buffalo hides. The clothes the family wears, from elaborate ceremonial headdresses to colorful beaded moccasins; the foods they eat; the games they play; the crafts and jewelry they make; and the spiritual rituals they perform are among the many topics included. This large-format book, with clear text and informative sidebars, provides a detailed pictorial account of the Plains Indian life more than a century ago.

"Every generation should preserve a portion of their past so that their children and grandchildren will have the opportunity to appreciate the people and places of a much simpler time". That pronouncement made to several officials of the City of Smyrna, Georgia began the formidable historic preservation project that would culminate in the saving of the historic Taylor-Brawner House, inclusion of the house and Brawner Hospital on the prestigious National Register of Historic Places, and completion of this fascinating history book. After several years of in-depth research, author Mike Terry has chronicled the true stories of the Taylor and Brawner families as they moved from rural Virginia and Georgia, to become respected community leaders in Atlanta and Smyrna. With input from numerous former employees and several Taylor and Brawner family members and with the assistance of a talented genealogist, Terry has compiled and blended many captivating stories and never-seen-before photos and historical documents into an engaging story of life in an era that many people considered A Simpler Time. Commissioned by the Taylor-Brawner House Foundation, this publication tells the story of one of the Atlanta area's most historic homes. 192 pages with over 100 historic images, indexed, in cloth cover.
