Publisher's Synopsis
My Life As An Indian: The Story Of A Red Woman And A White Man In The Lodges Of The Blackfeet is a memoir written by James W. Schultz. The book tells the story of Schultz's life with his wife, Bird Woman, who was a member of the Blackfeet tribe in Montana. The book chronicles their life together in the late 1800s and early 1900s, including their experiences living in the lodges of the Blackfeet people, their interactions with other members of the tribe, and their struggles to navigate the cultural differences between their two worlds. The book offers a unique perspective on the history and culture of the Blackfeet people, as well as an intimate portrait of a cross-cultural marriage during a time of great change in the American West. Schultz's writing is both informative and engaging, and his descriptions of the landscape and people of Montana are vivid and evocative. Overall, My Life As An Indian is a fascinating and thought-provoking read that offers a glimpse into a world that is both familiar and foreign.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
