This saddle-stitched pamphlet provides a description of how different Indigenous peoples made their now-iconic dwellings, how they used them historically, why they were so important to the cultures of the Great Plains and Canadian Prairies tribes, and how people still use tipis today. Illustrations and photographs in this handy and concise booklet help you understand the refined simplicity of these structures.
