Review:
At their peak, great herds of buffalo ranged between the Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi River, north into Canada, and as far south as Texas. Huge in size as well as number, these largest of all North American land animals were the Plains Indians' principal resource for more than 10,000 years. Then, with the westward expansion of European settlers, the vast roaming herds, numbering nearly a billion strong, were wiped out in two short decades.
Buffalo, a quality entry in the handsome Creatures of the Wild series, takes a close look at the history of these mythic creatures. Dramatic full-color photographs present the majestic splendor of these enormous animals in great detail, while the informative writing describes their rise and fall on the Great Plains. There are also interesting charts documenting the status of modern herds and the relative success of recent efforts to increase their numbers. --George Laney
