The Montana Cree

By Verne Dusenberry.  A study of religion as a sustaining force in American Indian life.  On a small reservation in Northern Montana, the Cree Indians provide an example of how a people, transplanted and persecuted throughout their history, can maintain a tribal identity and unity through the continuance of their religious values.  Native religion, even with Christian overtones, is deeply ingrained among these people -- the Sundance , dreams, spirits and legends still play a significant part in their daily lives.
