Part autobiographical and part folkloric, these essays and stories by the Lakota Zitkala-Sa, or Red Bird -the pen name of Native American writer and activist GERTRUDE SIMMONS BONNIN (1876-1938)-are renowned for being among the first works of contemporary Native American history, culture, and experience to come direct from a Native American, unedited and uninfluenced by outsiders. This 1921 collection-some of which originally appeared in magazines including The Atlantic Monthly and Harper’s-includes: - The School Days of an Indian Girl - An Indian Teacher Among Indians - The Great Spirit - The Soft-Hearted Sioux - A Warrior’s Daughter - A Dream of Her Grandfather - The Widespread Enigma of Blue-Star Woman - and more.
