CHILDREN OF THE RAVEN

Grimly prepared, a well-armed party of Crow Indians advances across a mountainside overlooking a beautiful river valley. The Crow called themselves Absaroke, in loose translation "the Raven People." In the late 1700s, the Crow moved into some of the valleys around the Rocky Mountains. Their hunting grounds were rich with game, and so desirable that the Sioux and Blackfeet tribes regularly came to raid and hunt. The Crow had to be in constant readiness to defend their lands against superior enemy numbers.
