James Welch was born in Browning, Mt, the headquarters of the Blackfeet Nation. His book gives us Napikwans an insight into the way the Blackfeet of the middle to late 1800's lived and thought. It uses their thoughts written in the English language to express their history and culture. Sticky mouths are black bears, long legs are elks, Blackhorns are buffalo, for examples. I found their religion as told by Mr Welch, a native Blackfoot, interesting and informative. If you want a true story of the Blackfeet, read this book. I enjoyed it and recommend it.
