Crowfoot, a Blood Indian who became chief of the Blackfoot Nation, is considered the greatest warrior and peacemaker during the settlement of the Canadian West.

In one shattering decade, from 1875 to 1885, the great buffalo herds disappeared from Western Canada. This forced the Plains Indians, who had depended on them for food, shelter, and clothing, to change their way of life. Crowfoot became a leader by merit, establishing his leadership in battle. He survived smallpox epidemics, fought in 19 battles and provided generous leadership, sharing his wealth with the less successful.
