This revised and updated edition contains the most important writings of Charles Eastman (Ohiyesa); the first Native American author to live simultaneously in both the traditional world of the Santee Sioux and the modern civilization of the white man. Dr. Eastman also attended the injured at the Battle of Wounded Knee. Ohiyesa's works represent a complete explanation of the philosophy and moral code of the Plains Indian. Ohiyesa's message speaks to every person who seeks a spiritual way in the midst of a society increasingly dominated by materialism and industrial technology. Sun Dance chief; James Trosper writes; It is a small miracle that these important spiritual teachings have been preserved for us. This new edition contains 10 sepia photographs from Eastman's life and a thought-provoking foreword by Raymond Wilson.

This is an AWESOME primary source but the author did not write for a typical 8th US History student; so a teacher needs to keep a close eye on their students; even the brilliant ones when using this resource. There is nothing like watching your student dive into the history "RAW" and drawing their own conclusions!2 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Great material for the Hamilton obsessedBy KimberReadsIf you've become Hamilton obsessed like the rest of the world; this is a great volume to own. I read Chernow's book; but was looking to read more complete writings than the edited snippets. I don't know that I can read the whole thing - people used to be a lot better at reading dense material than I apparently am; but I will pick my way through much of it eventually!0 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
