Chicago: Sage Books [0-8040-0545-1] 1972, 1st edition. (Hardcover) 160pp. Very good in very good dust jacket. Signed with an inscription by the author. Illustrations, notes, appendices. "By themselves the Great Plains are an exaggeration in geography - freezing cold, blisteringly hot, dust dry, wallowing in mud, windy, still, infinitely flat to the eye, ceaselessly hilly on foot, an immense desert, a fertile garden, a place where the plain truth often sounds like the most transparent lie and where the most incredible lie is always somehow truthful". Book about Indians of North America & Pioneer Life. Locale: Great Plains; Western America; Western Canada. (Folklore, Folk Tales, Folklore, Tall Tales).
