Book Synopsis

A remarkable collection of transcribed oral histories of members of Dakota, Lakota, Winnebago, and other communities.

From the Back Cover

In this remarkable collection of transcribed oral histories, first published in 1971, members of Dakota, Lakota, Winnebago, and other communities tell of their personal experiences: reservation life, the Great Depression, self-government, traditions, and life in the 1960s. Together these voices present a rich and complicated view of what it is to be an American Indian. Historians Joseph H. Cash and Herbert T. Hoover selected for this book fifty-two interviews from more than eight hundred conducted by the American Indian Research Project at the University of South Dakota.
