The Saynday of the title and the central figure of \u003ci\u003eWinter-Telling Stories\u003c\/i\u003e is a combination of trickster and hero peculiar to Asiatic and American Indian mythology. He could do almost anything when he was using his medicine power for good, but Saynday was a great joker and when playing tricks often got what was coming to him. \u003ci\u003eIndians on Horseback\u003c\/i\u003e is both a history of the Kiowas and a vivid account of their way of life. The narrative is enriched not only by detailed descriptions of how these first Americans made moccasins and cradles, thread and arrows and tipis, but also by a Plains Indian cookbook which includes recipes for such dishes as pemmican and stone-boiled buffalo.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alice Marriott\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0803251254\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780803251250\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bison Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/1963\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 226\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.98h x 5.20w x 0.64d","brand":"Alice Marriott","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981248594175,"sku":"9780803251250","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_63e0b2f2-bb5b-4686-a694-f51a48fd06a8.jpg?v=1683254475","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sayndays-people-alice-marriott-9780803251250","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
