The Essential Charles Eastman (Ohiyesa): Light on the Indian World
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.
