Frank Raymond Secoy wrote this classic work while at Columbia University in the early 195s. In his introduction, John C.

Ethnologist emeritus at the Smithsonian Institution, Ewers is the author of "The Horse in Blackfoot Indian Culture" (1955), "Blackfeet: Their Art and Culture" (1987), and other works.
