First published in 1911 as a report of the Bureau of American Ethnology, this classic treatise is based on twenty-nine years of study and observation in the field. \"Nothing has been borrowed from other observers,\" Alice C. Fletcher asserts. \"Only original material gathered directly from the native people has been used, and the writer has striven to make so far as possible the Omaha his own interpreter.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVolume I is devoted to tribal origins and early history, beliefs about the environment, rites pertaining to the individual, tribal organization and government, the sacred pole, and the quest for food. Volume II, also available as a Bison Book, considers language, social life, music, religion, warfare, treatment of disease, and death and burial customs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alice C.
