All of our bargain books are brand new, perfectly readable and represent a tremendous value!
The bargain books are, however, publisher overstocks and remainders that TRW purchases at
deep discounts. As a result, they may have a small mark through the UPC bar code or a small
mark on the side of the book. This is simply to mark the books so they cannot be sent back to
a publisher. Because of this, bargain books are non returnable to TRW unless they are damaged.
Please consider this before ordering.

After horses were introduced to the region, the Nez Perce became skilled horsemen and horse breeders. One of their most famous leaders was Chief Joseph, who, in 1877, bravely led 900 of his people (mostly women and children) for 1,700 miles as they tried to escape from U.S. forces who had forced them to leave their homeland. Each book in this subset covers the history of the people and their traditional daily life. The books also explore the traditional cultural life of each group, including spiritual beliefs, customs, arts and crafts, and style of dress. Each book discusses how the group was affected by the arrival of Europeans, how the people live today, and how they preserve their culture. |
