Tipi: Home of the Nomadic Buffalo Hunters by Paul Goble
Item Number: 8193331637
Award-winning author Paul Goble examines the construction, art, and significance of the tipi to the Plains Indians in his newest book, entitled Tipi: Home of the Nomadic Buffalo Hunters. Through a re-telling of the old-timer's stories, Goble shows how the tipi was more than just a home, but an expression of spiritual beliefs.
"Tipi: Home of the Nomadic Buffalo Hunters" is an instant classic. It bids fair to supplant the Laubins' [The Indian Tipi] as the 'Bible' on the subject. While aimed at a young audience, this is a worthy and very serious contribution to American Indian art history, readable and yet comprehensive. It is immediately the best resource for painted-tipi imagery ever published." -- Mike Cowdrey, author of American Indian Horse Masks
