It furthermore conveys a wisdom that speaks through the ages.\"-American Indian Quarterly The Vengeful Wife and Other Blackfoot Stories by historian Hugh A. Dempsey presents tales from the Blackfoot tribe of the plains of northern Montana and southern Alberta. Drawn from Dempsey's fifty years of interviewing tribal elders and sifting through archives, the stories are about warfare, hunting, ceremonies, sexuality, the supernatural, and captivity, and they reflect the Blackfoot worldview and beliefs. Hugh A. Dempsey, Chief Curator Emeritus of the Glenbow Museum in Calgary, Alberta, is the author of Crowfoot: Chief of the Blackfeet and The Amazing Death of Calf Shirt and Other Blackfoot Stories. A longtime editor of Alberta History, Dempsey is an honorary chief of the Blood tribe of the Blackfoot.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hugh Aylmer Dempsey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0806137711\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780806137711\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Oklahoma Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/01\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.90w x 0.70d","brand":"Hugh Aylmer Dempsey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43992460493055,"sku":"9780806137711","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a8b3e50f-0b2d-46ea-a57b-fdfc83575a7e.jpg?v=1683319070","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-vengeful-wife-and-other-hugh-aylmer-dempsey-9780806137711","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
