Book excerpt: Brave Hearts: Indian Women of the Plains tells the story of Plains Indian women through a series of fascinating vignettes. They are a remarkable group of women – some famous, some obscure. Some were hunters, some were warriors and, in a rare case, one was a chief; some lived extraordinary lives, while others lived more quietly in their lodges. Some were born into traditional families and knew their place in society while others were bi-racial who struggled to find their place in a world conflicted between Indian and white. Some never knew anything but the old, nomadic way of life while others lived-on to suffer through the reservation years. Others were born on the reservation but did their best in difficult times to keep to the old ways. Some never left the reservation while others ventured out into the larger world. All, in their own way, were Plains Indian women.
Book Synopsis A Warrior of the People by : Joe Starita
Download or read book A Warrior of the People written by Joe Starita and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "An important and riveting story of a 19th-century feminist and change agent. Starita successfully balances the many facts with vivid narrative passages that put the reader inside the very thoughts and emotions of La Flesche." —Chicago Tribune On March 14, 1889, Susan La Flesche Picotte received her medical degree—becoming the first Native American doctor in U.S. history. She earned her degree thirty-one years before women could vote and thirty-five years before Indians could become citizens in their own country. By age twenty-six, this fragile but indomitable Native woman became the doctor to her tribe. Overnight, she acquired 1,244 patients scattered across 1,350 square miles of rolling countryside with few roads. Her patients often were desperately poor and desperately sick—tuberculosis, small pox, measles, influenza—families scattered miles apart, whose last hope was a young woman who spoke their language and knew their customs. This is the story of an Indian woman who effectively became the chief of an entrenched patriarchal tribe, the story of a woman who crashed through thick walls of ethnic, racial and gender prejudice, then spent the rest of her life using a unique bicultural identity to improve the lot of her people—physically, emotionally, politically, and spiritually. Joe Starita's A Warrior of the People is the moving biography of Susan La Flesche Picotte’s inspirational life and dedication to public health, and it will finally shine a light on her numerous accomplishments.

Book Synopsis The Unregimented General by : Virginia Weisel Johnson
Download or read book The Unregimented General written by Virginia Weisel Johnson and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-01 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1962, this is a wonderful biography of General Nelson A. Miles (1839-1925), one of America’s most celebrated generals. Author Virginia W. Johnson covers General Miles’ career; from his service in the Civil War and his incredible success in the Indian Wars—including the capture of Geronimo and Chief Joseph of the Nez Perces—to serving as the Commanding General of the Army during the Spanish-American War. The Unregimented General is the portrait of a great frontier general, as distinguished as he was controversial. Richly illustrated throughout with photographs and maps by the author’s husband, Brig.-Gen. Walter M. Johnson. “The clear, crisp, action-filled narrative presents the wealth of concrete, significant detail that one expects of a good history [...] Mrs. Johnson knows the West, and graphically describes the hardships that Miles and his men endured while campaigning through extremes of heat and cold in desolate, wildly beautiful terrain.”—New York Times Book Review

Book Synopsis Action at Beecher Island by : Dee Brown
Download or read book Action at Beecher Island written by Dee Brown and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2012-10-23 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gripping recreation of a notoriously bloody clash between US Army scouts and American Indian warriors, by the #1 New York Times–bestselling author. Historian Dee Brown dramatically recounts the nine-day siege between Plains tribes and Major James William Forsyth’s scouts. Based on historical sources, the novel is told from a variety of viewpoints, including that of Lieutenant Frederick Beecher, still wounded from the Civil War and charged with clearing out American Indian settlements to make way for the Kansas Pacific Railroad. Beecher is joined by General Sheridan and Major Forsyth, as well as the scouts—from seasoned frontiersmen to young boys—employed to take part in the perilous mission. On the other side are the famous American Indian players in the battle: Turkey Leg and Roman Nose. With this complex assortment of characters, Brown vividly recreates the 1868 siege, as well as the competing worldviews of life on the prairies. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Dee Brown including rare photos from the author’s personal collection.

Book Synopsis The Union Pacific Railroad by : Charles Godfrey Leland
Download or read book The Union Pacific Railroad written by Charles Godfrey Leland and published by Jazzybee Verlag. This book was released on 2012 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains the record of a journey made by a party of gentlemen from Philadelphia to Kansas and back, during the month of November, 1866. The object of the excursion was to examine the condition of the Union Pacific Railway, Eastern Division, to assemble in council, at Leavenworth, those who were specially interested in it, and to make such scientific and industrial researches along the route as might be of advantage to the enterprise. How this was effected has already been laid before the public in several prominent journals. The writer has taken pains in these letters to depict, as truthfully as possibly his experience and impressions of this very interesting journey. As the condition of that grand national enterprise, the Pacific Railway, was the principal subject of discussion by the tourists, the facts thus evolved form, of course, the subject matter of the series. As for the rest, he has done his utmost to set forth how he and his friends passed their time during their trip of three thousand miles in a railroad car, and what were his real feelings at the time. His chief object in republishing these letters — written originally for Forneys Press, of Philadelphia — has been to express, in a collected and somewhat more durable form, a slight tribute of his gratitude to the gentlemen of the company to whose general kindness and personal courtesy he is indebted for having passed as pleasant a month as it was ever his fortune to enjoy.
