"Omaha Dwellings, Furniture and Implements" by James Owen Dorsey is an in-depth look at the everyday home life of the Omaha tribe in the late 1800s. The book explains the homes the Omaha people lived in, from their earth lodges to their skin tents, describing how they built them and what they used them for, also revealing the tools and household items they made and what they used those for. By walking the reader through each dwelling and item, the book gives a clear picture of the Omaha people’s culture, their traditions, and their relationship with the land around them.
