Publication: Univ of OK Press, 1956, Norman
First edition. Cloth, 334pp., illus., 2 maps, index. An outstanding history of the Sioux from 1878 to 1890, a critical period in which the Sioux were confined to reservation life and struggled to maintain their cultural traditions. Not only were they torn by internal struggles for power and leadership, they were subjected to callous and often corrupt Government Officials. A most thorough history and a continuation of George Hyde's classic earlier work Red Cloud's Folk. Previous owners name and address neatly written on upper fore-corner of front free-endpaper, else a lightly rubbed, near fine copy. Very good dust jacket shows some rubbing and modest edge wear.
