Product Description
A great genealogical resource, with stories, autobiographies and illustrations.
Dakota Indians -- Government relations; Indians of North America -- Government relations 1869-1934; Indian agents -- United States Biography
Note from Author~ The following pages were written at agencies and
training-schools in many reservations, from Standing Rock, North Dakota, to Round Valley, California. I do not know that they carry the atmosphere in
which the events treated occurred and were written of, but I do know that sincerity of purpose, strengthened by the environment of Indian life as it is to-day, has actuated the writing of every word. And the work must stand as it is or fall.
