Frank Bird Linderman was a popular, prolific, early-twentieth-century recorder of Indian life and culture on the Northern Plains. Linderman lived among the Indians - studying, loving, and grieving for a people whose way of life was under siege. During his study and immersion, Linderman developed a deep admiration for Frozen Water, a spiritual leader who devoted his life to saving the Gros Ventres from an unenviable fate. Wolf and the Winds is Linderman's fictionalized account of Frozen Water's lonely life of valor and sacrifice.
