Settlers justified this transformation with the unexamined premise of deficiency, according to which the Great Plains region was inadequate in flora and fauna and the region lacking in modern civilization. Drawing on history, sociology, art, and economic theory, Frances W. Kaye counters the argument of deficiency, pointing out that, in its original ecological state, no region can possibly be incomplete. Goodlands examines the settlers? misguided theory, discussing the ideas that shaped its implementation, the forces that resisted it, and Indigenous ideologies about what it meant to make good use of the land. By suggesting methods for redeveloping the Great Plains that are founded on native cultural values, Goodlands serves the region in the context of a changing globe. 410 0$aWest unbound. 606 $aIndians of North America$zGreat Plains$xHistory 606 $aAgriculture$zGreat Plains$xHistory 606 $aAgriculture$xEnvironmental aspects$zGreat Plains$xHistory 607 $aGreat Plains$xHistory 610 $aecology 610 $aecosystem 610 $aprairie 615 0$aIndians of North America$xHistory. 615 0$aAgriculture$xHistory. 615 0$aAgriculture$xEnvironmental aspects$xHistory. 676 $a978 700 $aKaye$b Frances W.$0801140 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910688338603321 996 $aGoodlands$91931759 997 $aUNINA
