A Boy’s Summer on the Buffalo Plains
A long time ago, before any of you were born, great herds of buffalo fed on the western plains, and wild Indians lived by hunting them. They ate the flesh, wore the skins as clothing, slept in lodges made from the hides, and fashioned tools from different parts of the buffalo’s body.
Spend the summer with a young ranchman named Jack as he lives with the Indians of the plains; hunting and eat buffalo. This historical fiction book may not be totally accurate, but it could be used along with more information about the tribes of the plains.
