{"product_id":"9780803219403","title":"One Hundred Summers: A Kiowa Calendar Record","description":"\u003cbr\u003ePrior to widespread literacy, the Kiowa people recorded their history in pictorial calendars, marking an entry for each summer and each winter. \u003ci\u003eOne Hundred Summers\u003c\/i\u003e presents a recently discovered calendar, created by the Kiowa master artist Silver Horn. Covering the period from 1828 to 1928, the pictures trace Kiowa experiences from buffalo to biplanes, from horse raiding to World War I service, offering an indigenous perspective on a critical period of Kiowa history. The calendar, now housed at the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History, is reproduced in full color in this book.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWeaving together information from archival sources, community memories, and a close reading of the pictures themselves, Candace S. Greene frames and clarifies this uniquely Native American perspective on Southern Plains history during an era of great political, economic, and cultural pressures. A rare window on a century of Kiowa life, \u003ci\u003eOne Hundred S\u003c\/i\u003eummers is also an invaluable contribution to the indigenous history of North America. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eBeautifully produced with sixty-five color plates and twenty-five black \u0026amp; white images, this volume includes appendices featuring a wealth of unpublished primary source material on other Kiowa calendars and a glossary by a native Kiowa speaker.","brand":"UNP - Nebraska","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47021190316272,"sku":"9780803219403","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780803219403_p0.jpg?v=1763666357","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780803219403","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
