VERY GOOD CONDITION .minor signs of use.clean, Solid, bright ; white & red titles on tan paper COVERS, showing 3 hores riders in native american attire. ; 38 plates, 49 text ilust photos; 350 pages; astonishing: the Ghost-Dance Religion. Investigating every Ind…ian uprising from Pontiac to the 1890's, every Indian distance to aggression, every incident of importance. Mooney discovered a cultural pattern: a messianic religion that permeated leaders and warriors from Tecumseh and his brother The Prophet on up to the Plains tribes that revived the Ghost-Dance in the 1880s and 90s. The message was: abandon the ways of the Whites; go back to Indian ways; an Indian messiah is coming; the Indian dead are to be resurrected- indeed, some have already returned; and the Whites are to be killed by the Spirits. Mooney made an exhaustive study of this cult, the rise of its latest version, diffusion to the Plains, and relevance to the medicine man Sitting Bull and others.Indexed.MANY PAGES OF DESCRIPTIONS, ETC BY PRIMARY SOURCES.
