<p>From the PREFACE: "THE PREPARATION OF THIS BOOK HAS NOT BEEN WITH ANY IDEA OF SELF-GLORY. It is just a message to the white race; to bring my people before their eyes in a true and authentic manner. The American Indian has been written ABOOUT BY HUNDREDS OF AUTHORS OF WHITE BLOOD OR POSSIBLY BY AN INDIAN OF MIXED BLOOD WHO HAS SPENT THE GREATER PART OF HIS LIFE AWAY FROM A RESERVATION. THESE ARE NOT IN A POSITION TO WRITE ACCURATELY ABOUT THE STRUGGLES AND DISAPPOINTMENTS OF THE INDIAN."</p><p>See photos of contents/illustrations and condition. Binding is soound. No internalmarkings. Hinges sound. Only slight edge wear to boarad extremities. Spine is a bit faded and is pulled at the top. Inked top page edges with side andlower edges trimed.</p><p>A Very Good copy of the scarce First Edition of Chief Standing Bear's writings of the Sioux.</p> Houghton Mifflin Company hardcover
Boston and New York: Houghton Mifflin Company 1928. Reprint. Hard Cover. Near Fine/No Jacket. 8x5x1. Early printing. Minimal wear to corners ink gift note on front endpaper. 1928 Hard Cover. xiv 288 pp. Includes illustrations from drawings by the author and from photographs. When it was first published in 1928 Luther Standing Bear's autobiographical account of his tribe and tribesmen was hailed by Van Wyck Brooks as 'one of the most engaging and veracious we have ever had.' It remains a landmark in Native American literature among the first books about Native Americans written from the Native American point of view by a Native American. Luther Standing Bear 1868 - 1939 was an Oglala Lakota chief notable in American history as a Native American author educator philosopher and actor of the twentieth century. Standing Bear fought to preserve Lakota heritage and sovereignty and was at the forefront of a Progressive movement to change government policy toward Native Americans. Standing Bear was one of a small group of Lakota leaders of his generation such as Gertrude Bonnin and Charles Eastman who were born and raised in the oral traditions of their culture educated in white culture and wrote significant historical accounts of their people and history in English. Luther's experiences in early life the Carlisle Indian Industrial School Wild Westing with Buffalo Bill and life on government reservations present a unique view of a Native American during the Progressive Era in American history. Standing Bear's commentaries on Native American culture and wisdom educated the American public deepened public awareness and created popular support to change government policies toward Native American peoples. Luther Standing Bear helped create the popular twentieth-century image that Native American culture is holistic and respectful of nature; his classic commentaries appear in college-level reading lists in anthropology literature history and philosophy and constitute a legacy and treasury of Native American wisdom.
