This book assembles for the first time reliable information about the dress of the Plains Indians. It counters the misconception that all the tribes of the central region dressed alike. The reader will find information on patterns, colors, designs, and the symbolism of details of ceremonial dress. It will also assist in tracing the evolution and transmittal of various features of apparel, which provide insight into Indian migrations and contact with other groups. Included are illustrations, step-by-step construction details, appendices, endnotes, a bibliography, and an index. This copy is clean and solid but lacks a front free endpaper.
