All of our bargain books are brand new, perfectly readable and represent a tremendous value!
The bargain books are, however, publisher overstocks and remainders that TRW purchases at
deep discounts. As a result, they may have a small mark through the UPC bar code or a small
mark on the side of the book. This is simply to mark the books so they cannot be sent back to
a publisher. Because of this, bargain books are non returnable to TRW unless they are damaged.
Please consider this before ordering.

Sioux (Peoples of North America) | ||
ISBN: 9781628321562 Author: Bodden, Valerie (Author) Publisher: Creative Paperbacks Published: March 2016 Retail: $12.00 OUR PRICE: $2.29 You Save 81% Binding Type: Paperback Annotation: Elegant in design and sumptuously illustrated, this set is one of the strongest series about Native Americans to come out in a long time. Each title opens with the earliest known history of the tribes. The descriptions of the tribes cover many aspects of life, including gender roles, wartime, peacetime, and religion and spirituality. Also featured are accounts of interactions with other tribes and with white people, as well as the effects of those relationships. Many words unique to the specific tribes are used and are defined in the text. The illustrations are excellent. Present-day and archival photos, which depict people as well as scenery and animals, are stunning, regardless of whether they are black-and-white or color. Some images take up a full page, while smaller photos appear in elegantly lined sidebars. In addition to the photos of people, there are many photos of related scenery and animals. VERDICT Informative and beautiful, this series is a wonderful addition to any library.α(c) Copyright 2011 |
