Reviews

Roderick J. Barman:
A visual joy ... This book richly deserves a large audience north and south of the border.

Richard W. Slatta:
This is a wonderful book, and I can’t wait to view the exhibit upon which it is based. Once the buffalo disappear, so too does the native horseman. Thus, this fascinating book on Canadian native cowboys yesterday and today makes an important, much-needed contribution ... I am reluctant to find fault with such an expansive, impressive project. We can only hope that other major museums will take this imposing book and exhibition as a model and produce similar materials for other native cultures of the Americas.

A well-researched and comprehensive history of the connection between aboriginal people and cowboy culture ... striking images throughout the book ... a stunning volume sure to shatter the idea that one is either a cowboy or an Indian.
