Legends of Our Times breaks the stereotype of 'cowboys and Indians' to show an almost unknown side of the West. It tells the story of some of the first cowboys -- Native peoples of the northern Plains and Plateau. Through stories, poetry, art, and reminiscences in this lavishly illustrated work, Native people invite the reader on a fascinating journey into the world of ranching and rodeo. The book also presents the special relationship between Native people and animals such as the horse, buffalo, deer, and dog, which have always played an important role in Native spiritual and economic life. By the mid-nineteenth century, Native people were highly valued for their skills in horse breeding and herding, and could take advantage of new economic opportunities in the emerging ranching industry. Faced with limited resources, competition for land, and control by governments and Indian agents, many Native people still managed to develop their own herds or to find work as cowboys. As the ways of the Old West changed, new forms of entertainment and sport evolved. Impresarios such as Buffalo Bill Cody invented the Wild West show, employing Native actors and stunt performers to dramatize scenes from the history of the West and to demonstrate the friendly competitions that cowboys enjoyed at the end of a long round-up or cattle drive. The popularity of rodeos also grew within Native communities, and arenas were built on many reserves. Native rodeos are still held, while many Native competitors ride in professional rodeos as well. Today, Plains and Plateau peoples proudly continue a long tradition of cowboying. Legends of Our Times is a celebration of their rich contribution to ranching and rodeo life.Indian cowboysPrairie ProvincesHistoryIndian cowboysGreat PlainsHistoryRanchesPrairie ProvincesHistoryRanchesGreat PlainsHistoryRodeosPrairie ProvincesHistoryRodeosGreat PlainsHistoryPrairie ProvincesSocial life and customsGreat PlainsSocial life and customsIndian cowboysHistory.Indian cowboysHistory.RanchesHistory.RanchesHistory.RodeosHistory.RodeosHistory.971.2Baillargeon Morgan1533967Tepper Leslie Heyman1947-1533968Canadian Museum of Civilization.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910791450203321Legends of our times3781118UNINA03127nam 22005894a 450 991078017330332120230607213633.00-585-41561-7(CKB)111056486856558(OCoLC)179076138(CaPaEBR)ebrary5006028(SSID)ssj0000259049(PQKBManifestationID)11244605(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000259049(PQKBWorkID)10273493(PQKB)10414530(MiAaPQ)EBC3410333(Au-PeEL)EBL3410333(CaPaEBR)ebr5006028(OCoLC)50553172(EXLCZ)9911105648685655820001020d2001 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrThreading time a cultural history of threadwork /Dolores BausumFort Worth, TX.

The author draws on stories about threadworkers from ancient literature - the Bible, the Iliad, and the Odyssey - and from more recent works by such authors as Nathaniel Hawthorne, Theodore Dreiser, Margaret Mitchell, and John Updike. Works by two Germans - play-wright Gerhart Hauptmann and artist Kathe Kollwitz - and English poets such as Robert Burns and William Blake illustrate the sweatshops characteristic of textile and garment production for centuries, a pattern that persists today in developing countries." "Artistic images from classic sculpture, a window from the Cathedral at Chartres, paintings by such masters as Vermeer and Monet, twentieth-century quilts, and works by contemporary painters such as Elien Day Hale and Margaret Schillie further illustrate the significance of thread-work." "As an original view of threadwork and those who create it written from a broad chronological perspective, Threading Time reaches beyond textile artisans and collectors to present a study significant to readers of literature, women's history, and cultural history."--BOOK JACKETNeedleworkNeedleworkHistoryFancy workFancy workHistoryNeedlework.NeedleworkHistory.Fancy work.Fancy workHistory.746.4/09Bausum Dolores1578844MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910780173303321Threading time3858512UNINA
