Comments

Suzy R. Fox: I enjoyed the details of daily life and recounting old stories. Easy to read, each chapter is an entertaining story. The author was in the middle of it all for the wiping out of the buffalo, the move to Reservations, and plenty of time before those things enjoying the full life of the Native American on the plains. A fantastic historical read.

Matty: A wonderful autobiography that truly takes you back in time. This man’s life was amazing and he speaks with love and respect of the Indians he spent his life among.

H. C. Blackburn: I am a third of the way through this book, and it is hard to put down. However, because of the fine type, I have to give my eyes a break! So I have to pace myself. it is a very good read, and gives one a very good insight into the Native culture. The Indians seem to like him, which is a refreshing change to the norm, so he is able to explore their culture, even though he is in dangerous territory! In all, a good book and one I recommend.

kate12: I live in Montana and this past August I and a friend went to Fort Benton on the Missouri. The wide brown plains, the swift ly moving river, the nearby mountains were still there and the fort. The bison are gone and the Indian tribes are on their reservations. Mr. Schultz' book brought it all alive for me. Fort Benton is still a small town but I could imagine the camps of the tipis, the throngs of all the inhabitants he wrote of, the steamboats on the river, the howls of wolves, the yelps of coyotes, the sound of bison herds and the sheer numbers of them on the plains above the Missouri. I would have liked to have seen the frontier before it was gone forever.

Kindle Customer: I have read lots of similar books, non fiction, but this was one of the best. Very well written, and honest. The author may have been a tad biased in favor of the Indian but not a lot. For the most part, he told it like it was, from his viewpoint. He also was honest about himself. Pretty much told the good, the bad and the ugly. I heartily recommend reading this book.

A. K. C.: This book provides an inside look at a way of life that has long since disappeared. The author tells the story of a people he respects and loves, both the good a d the bad. The reader can expect to learn much as he reads about the author's life living with the Blackfoot tribe. The book's one fault, and it's a serious one, is the author's failure to give dates to almost all of the events he recounts. For example, he does not tell the reader the year he arrived in Ft. Benton, the year he married, and the year his wife dies. All of that makes it difficult for the reader to place the events in their historical context. Compounding that is the author's failure to identify the geographic location of many events. Despite those short comings the book is well worth reading

Valerie Woodcock: I am interested in different cultures of all types and found this book to have a realistic way about it. The author has written a very readable book about the life and times of the day. The cruelty and the better times. At the end of the day it is about the struggle between the Native American people and the white settlers.

JR: If you have any prejudices against the Indians, the “savages” and their lack of morality, read this book. A marvelous ethnographic travel in time by a fine observer of the life of the Blackfeet Indians and others tribes just before the massive killing of the buffalos . A rich account about their remarkable community values, their social organization and their trading habits with the white.
It’s also a fascinating love story between a white man and an Indian woman. Above prejudices, educational barrier or money, a true beautiful story between two highly intelligent humans being.

Auldyin: I tend to read books relating to the history and culture of the various Native American tribes, or tribal individuals. I did however enjoy this book which was concerned with the author's day to day life and association with Blackfoot tribal groups and characters. A first hand account of life with Native Americans during a period where there was tribal conflict, buffalo hunting, etc.

Gary Onysko: This is now the second copy that I own; the first is pretty much in tatters from reading it so many times.
Having lived in the very south-western corner of Alberta for several years and knowing the area and North-West Montana a fair bit, this brings back geographical memories for me. It goes far beyond that though, because it very eloquently describes so many of the interactions with the native peoples and the early white traders. The book is written in such a style that anyone can be quickly taken back to relive those exciting times on the prairies and in the mountains before civilization took over and changed everything.
He writes in a style that is so everyday, with personal comments that really reflect the feelings of the times.
A great read at any time. I would highly recommend this book to anyone! Gary Onysko Okanagan Valley of British Columbia
