The American Plains Indians

Book Review

reviewed by Matt Fritz


Osprey Men-at-Arms Series # 163

By Jason Hook & Richard Hook

The authors have created a fine resource for the wargamer interested in the Plains Indians. This volume includes useful background on the Sun Dance, counting coup, and other Indian customs. I wish the color pictures included more warriors, and a few less women and children. It would also be useful to have more information about war paint and shield designs, but overall this is a valuable guide to the Plains Indians.
