To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

As this last tribe is powerful andferocious, the _Snakes_, the _Pierced-noses_ or _Sha-ap-tins_, the_Flatheads_, &c. , make common cause against them, when the former go tohunt east of the mountains. They set out with their families, and thecavalcade often numbers two thousand horses. When they have the goodfortune not to encounter the enemy, they return with the spoils of anabundant chase; they load a part of their horses with the hides andbeef, and return home to pass the winter in peace. Som...etimes, on thecontrary, they are so harassed by the Blackfeet, who surprise them inthe night and carry off their horses, that they are forced to returnlight-handed, and then they have nothing to eat but roots, all thewinter.
These Indians are passionately fond of horseraces: by the bets they makeon these occasions they sometimes lose all that they possess. The womenride, as well as the men. For a bridle they use a cord of horse-hair, which they attach round the animal's mouth; with that he is easilychecked, and by laying the hand on his neck, is made to wheel to thisside or that.
