""Indian Games"" by Andrew McFarland Davis is a comprehensive guide to the traditional games played by Native Americans. The book covers a wide variety of games, from simple children's games to complex adult competitions. Each game is described in detail, including its history, rules, and equipment needed to play. The author also provides insight into the cultural significance of these games, explaining how they were used to teach important values and skills, and how they played a role in Native American society. The book is illustrated with photographs and drawings, making it easy to understand how each game is played. Whether you are a historian, a teacher, or simply someone interested in learning more about Native American culture, ""Indian Games"" is an invaluable resource.""When the sides are equal the players will occupy an entire afternoon without either side gaining any advantage; at other times one of the two will gain the two games that they need to win. In this game you would say to see them run that they looked like two parties who wanted to fight. This exercise contributes much to render the savages alert and prepared to avoid blows from the tomahawk of an enemy, when they find themselves in a combat. Without being told in advance that it was a game, one might truly believe that they fought in open country. Whatever accident the game may cause, they attribute it to the chance of the game and have no ill will towards each other. The suffering is for the wounded, who bear it contentedly as if nothing had happened, thus making it appear that they have a great deal of courage and are men.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
