Abstract
Native American tribes living on the Great Plains have long attracted the attention of Euro-American scholars, inspiring over the years a vast quantity of research. The contributors to this volume discuss and evaluate all the major works of scholarship devoted to the culture of Plains Indians, from the arrival of these peoples on the North American grasslands thousands of years ago, through their subsequent Village and High Plains lifeways, to their present-day adaption to reservation and urban life. Toghether, the twenty-two authors undertake a comprehensive survey of the state of anthropology on the Plains: what it has been, what it is now, and what it may offer theory and method in the future. -- From interior dustjacket

History / Biographical
Also known as "Arctic Rampage," directed by Peter Hunt in 1981 and starred Charles Bronson, Lee Marvin, and Angie Dickinson. Loosely based on the true-life story of Albert Johnson (The Mad Trapper of Rat River) who was pursued by the Mounted Police in the Northwest Territories and Yukon after shooting a police constable in 1932. Filmed entirely in the Canmore/Spray Lakes area, apart from one scene at the Athabasca Glacier, Jasper National Park. "Death Hunt" was the first film to use Canmore and the Spray Valley as primary set locations, and many locals were recruited as extras. Additionally, dog teams were brought from throughout Alberta for Mad Trapper pursuit scenes on the Spray Lakes Reservoir. Mountaineer and Association of Canadian Mountain Guide Tim Auger stood in as a body double for Bronson for some scenes.
