The Seven Visions of Bull Lodge: As Told by His Daughter, Garter Snake (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780803272569)

The strength of the narrative is the rich detail of ritual description: fasting, sacrifices, vision experiences, the practices of healing. By describing ritual in the context of a man's life, the book gives a uniquely historical understanding of the dynamics of traditional religious life. It provides deeper understanding of the Gros Ventres' way of life and gives a valuable comparative perspective on plains Indian religion.―Raymond J. DeMallie, Western Historical Quarterly
