Add to ORKGIn this relatively short book, Frey seeks to describe the world view of the Crow (Apsaalooke) Indians of Montana. He places his description within the sociocultural context of the contemporary reservation and uses two key metaphors drawn from the Crow people, first, shifting bundles of driftwood that lodge and cling together in a turbulent river, and second a medicine or wagon wheel where the hub and the circumference are connected by distinct spokes. The Crow world is interpreted as one in which everything-human, animal, plant, land, and spirit-is interconnected, and the metaphors provide symbolism of diversity and unity, receptivity and creativity, and dependence and volition (p. 174)
