“We Are Coming Home!” is the story of thehighly complex process of repatriation as described by those intimatelyinvolved in the work, notably the Piikuni, Siksika, and Kainai elderswho provided essential oversight and guidance. We also hear from theGlenbow Museum’s president and CEO at the time and from anarchaeologist then employed at the Provincial Museum of Alberta whoprovides an insider’s view of the drafting of FNSCORA. Theseaccounts are framed by Conaty’s reflections on the impact ofmuseums on First Nations, on the history and culture of the Niitsitapi,or Blackfoot, and on the path forward. With Conaty’s passing inAugust of 2013, this book is also a tribute to his enduringrelationships with the Blackfoot, to his rich and exemplary career, andto his commitment to innovation and mindful museum practice.

Johnstone gives his millions of avid fans exactly the kind of gritty, action-packed Western novel they look for from this prolific and hugely popular writer. "A Messiah Shall Lead Them . . . " In the Wyoming wild, Blackfoot warriors prepare for battle, their bloodlust stirred by a legendary prophet promising victory in a war that will forever rid the plains of the white man. To legendary mountain man Preacher, it isn't a promise-it's a threat. But being out-numbered in a savage frontier means justice will be as hard-earned and uncertain as . . . survival." . . . To An Early Grave." With a loyal Cheyenne as his guide, and a spirited Dragoon squadron for cover, Preacher forges up the treacherous Sante Fe trail. But the only way to win this war is to unmask the hell-raising Messiah whose godforsaken message is leading a desperate people into certain massacre . . .
Thoroughly enjoyed this book I love history and to read it in the first person and in the words of a woman who had "grit" and enjoyed life and adventure was very entertaining. Kindle Customer
I liked the humor. Interesting point of view that someone found a diary and pieces missing and I love reading about the old west, Indians and whorehouses and the characters were developed to make the story fun. Also loved the old pictures. A fun story and fast read. Joan Hughs
Ride with Mary into the Wild West of long ago. Meet the soiled doves of San Francisco. Hangtown gold miners. The China girl Ah Choi. Mary promises not to lie too bad.I found her handwritten story in an old trunk I bought at an auction in Walton, NY. There are many corrections and many notes and pictures stuck between the pages, and the ink and pencil are faded and often difficult to read. I have had to guess a few times and hope the language of my guesses doesn't sound too modern, nor done too much harm to Mary's intent.The name Mary Faraday Huntington does not appear in any of the old records. Whoever wrote the words shamelessly talks about things rarely mentioned in stories of the Wild West. She describes the way it was long ago in the gold fields of the Sierras and among the soiled doves of San Francisco, not the sugar coated fairy tales of book and Hollywood. ____________________ Go get Mary's story and ride with her into the Wild West of long ago.

Автор: Chamberlin J. Edward Название: The Banker and the Blackfoot: An Untold Story of Friendship, Trust, and Broken Promises in the Old West ISBN: 1629190179 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781629190174 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 22950.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: During the last decades of the nineteenth century in the Old West, cowboys and Indians, lawmen and outlaws, ranchers and farmers shared the border between Canada and the United States--and mostly ignored it. American traders and cowboys with their cattle came north to the territory that later became Alberta, and the Blackfoot traveled south to Montana to visit their kinfolk there. Bull trains regularly carried supplies from Fort Benton, on the Missouri River, across the border to Fort Macleod, a small ramshackle town in the foothills of the Rockies. The Banker and the Blackfoot conjures up vividly the never-before-told story of Fort Macleod, the surrounding Blackfoot territory, and the foothills during roughly two decades, 1885 to 1905, when the people living there--First Nations and M tis, rancher and farmer--respectfully set out to accommodate Blackfoot sovereignty and new settlement--before the Canadian government broke its Treaty promises to the Indians. There were many friendships in this time and place, both among town residents and foothills settlers and the police, and between many of them and the Blackfoot. It was here that the self-made banker John Cowdry--J. Edward Chamberlin's grandfather--met Crop Eared Wolf, the legendary Blackfoot warrior and brilliant horseman, and their friendship and trust formed a lasting bond. Cowdry later became the town's first mayor, and Crop Eared Wolf succeeded his father, the great statesman Red Crow, as head chief of the Blood tribe. Fort Macleod embraced it all--Sun Dances and social dances, bibles and medicine bundles, drums and piano recitals, horse races and polo matches, and rodeos to celebrate both the horse culture of the Blackfoot and the skills of the cattle range. The town was full of great characters, including Madame Kanouse (Natawista), admired for both her influential intelligence and her stunning fashion sense; Kamoose Taylor, hospitable patron of the Macleod Hotel--where Francis Dickens, son of the great novelist Charles Dickens, and the Sundance Kid himself were found at the bar; Colonel James Macleod, commander of the North-West Mounted Police; the taciturn Jerry Potts, unequaled M tis guide and interpreter; John Ware, a successful black cowboy and rancher; and the renowned Peigan chief Big Swan. Full of wisdom, passion, and insight, The Banker and the Blackfoot compellingly portrays a time when many people in that part of the Old West looked for ways of getting along with each other and getting on with the things that mattered to them all. Their remarkable story offers hope for all of us today.
