Book Synopsis Hiawatha and the Peacemaker by : Robbie Robertson
Download or read book Hiawatha and the Peacemaker written by Robbie Robertson and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born of Mohawk and Cayuga descent, musical icon Robbie Robertson learned the story of Hiawatha and his spiritual guide, the Peacemaker, as part of the Iroquois oral tradition. Now he shares the same gift of storytelling with a new generation. Hiawatha was a strong and articulate Mohawk who was chosen to translate the Peacemaker’s message of unity for the five warring Iroquois nations during the 14th century. This message not only succeeded in uniting the tribes but also forever changed how the Iroquois governed themselves—a blueprint for democracy that would later inspire the authors of the U.S. Constitution. Caldecott Honor–winning illustrator David Shannon brings the journey of Hiawatha and the Peacemaker to life with arresting oil paintings. Together, the team of Robertson and Shannon has crafted a new children’s classic that will both educate and inspire readers of all ages. Includes a CD featuring an original song written and performed by Robbie Robertson.

Book Synopsis Vanished in Hiawatha by : Carla Joinson
Download or read book Vanished in Hiawatha written by Carla Joinson and published by Bison Books. This book was released on 2020-11-01 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Begun as a pork-barrel project by the federal government in the early 1900s, the Canton Asylum for Insane Indians (also known as the Hiawatha Insane Asylum) quickly became a dumping ground for inconvenient Indians. The federal institution in Canton, South Dakota, deprived many Native patients of their freedom without genuine cause, often requiring only the signature of a reservation agent. Only nine Native patients in the asylum’s history were committed by court order. Without interpreters, mental evaluations, or therapeutic programs, few patients recovered. But who cared about Indians in South Dakota? After three decades of complacency, both the superintendent and the city of Canton were surprised to discover that someone did care, and that a bitter fight to shut the asylum down was about to begin. In this disturbing tale, Carla Joinson unravels the question of why this institution persisted for so many years. She also investigates the people who allowed Canton Asylum’s mismanagement to reach such staggering proportions and asks why its administrators and staff were so indifferent to the misery experienced by their patients. Vanished in Hiawatha is the harrowing tale of the mistreatment of Native American patients at a notorious asylum whose history helps us to understand the broader mistreatment of Native peoples under forced federal assimilation in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
Download or read book Little written by David Treuer and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 1997 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable debut by a writer not yet 30, Little tells a story as starkly beautiful and dramatic as the Minnesota landscape where it is set. The novel opens in 1980, with the funeral of an eight-year-old boy named Little, and moves back in time as members of the boy's extended Native American family tell his story, as well as their own. What results is a stirring testament to the power of the human spirit in the face of prejudice, poverty, and loss.

Book Synopsis The Song of Hiawatha; Abridged for Children with 48 Colour Illustrations (Aziloth Books) by : Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
Download or read book The Song of Hiawatha; Abridged for Children with 48 Colour Illustrations (Aziloth Books) written by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow and published by . This book was released on 2016-07-02 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This colourful edition of Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's epic poem 'The Song of Hiawatha' is specially selected with children in mind, tracing Hiawatha's life from his early years and his friendship with animals and nature spirits through his marriage to Minnehaha and his mission to teach agriculture and bring peace among the warring Ojibway, Dakota and other tribes along the US-Canadian border. The poem was first published in 1855 but is set in the age just prior to the first European settlers to North America. Profusely illustrated, the forty-eight colour and thirty-eight black and white images blend seamlessly with the hypnotic rhythm of Longfellow's famous poem, bringing the magical world of the American Indian - where dream and waking life were considered equally real - fully to life. The moon is a grandmother, a rainbow the place flowers go to when they die, dwarves (Puk-Wudjies) haunt the dark woods, and Hiawatha himself is the son of Mudjekeewis, the West Wind. Brief explanatory links between excerpted verses maintain the integrity of the story, giving even the youngest reader an understanding of the wondrous scope of this magnificent epic.
Book Synopsis Benjamin West and His Cat Grimalkin by : Marguerite Henry
Download or read book Benjamin West and His Cat Grimalkin written by Marguerite Henry and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-03-11 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Newbery Award–winning author Marguerite Henry’s beloved novel about a boy who would do anything to paint is now available in a collectible hardcover gift edition. Benjamin West was born with an extraordinary gift—the gift of creating paintings of people, animals, and landscapes so true to life they “took one’s breath away.” But Benjamin is part of a deeply religious Quaker family, and Quaker beliefs forbid the creation of images. Because Benjamin’s family didn’t approve of his art, he had to make his own painting supplies. The local Native Americans taught him how to mix paints from earth, clay, and plants. And his cat, Grimalkin, sacrificed hair from his tail for Ben’s brushes. This classic story from Newbery Award–winning author Marguerite Henry features the original text and illustrations in a gorgeous collectible hardcover edition.
Download or read book The Hiawatha Man written by Geoffrey Self and published by Ashgate Publishing. This book was released on 1995 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1875 the son of an English woman and a coloured African doctor, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor was in the first decade of the twentieth century a figure of considerable influence in British music. He was regarded by Elgar, Vaughan Williams and many others as by far the most able young musician of his generation, yet within a few years of his early death in 1912 he passed into obscurity. For a while he had been perhaps the most popular composer in the country--performances of his Hiawatha far exceeded in number those of any other work of the time. This new biography surveys critically the music and considers the reasons for its neglect today. It examines the influences on the man and composer, and in turn his impact above all on negro communities, especially in the USA, which he visited on several occasions with triumphal success. The book includes a number of photographs and over 100 music illustrations, previously unpublished material and correspondences and a complete list of works [Publisher description]
Download or read book You Are Here written by Hiawatha Bray and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the rise of modern navigation technology, from radio location to GPS-and the consequent decline of privacy What does it mean to never get lost? You Are Here examines the rise of our technologically aided era of navigational omniscience-or how we came to know exactly where we are at all times. In a sweeping history of the development of location technology in the past century, Bray shows how radio signals created to carry telegraph messages were transformed into invisible beacons to guide ships and how a set of rapidly-spinning wheels steered submarines beneath the polar ice cap. But while most of these technologies were developed for and by the military, they are now ubiquitous in our everyday lives. Our phones are now smart enough to pinpoint our presence to within a few feet-and nosy enough to share that information with governments and corporations. Filled with tales of scientists and astronauts, inventors and entrepreneurs, You Are Here tells the story of how humankind ingeniously solved one of its oldest and toughest problems-only to herald a new era in which it's impossible to hide.

Book Synopsis Shades of Hiawatha by : Alan Trachtenberg
Download or read book Shades of Hiawatha written by Alan Trachtenberg and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2005-10-19 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A book of elegance, depth, breadth, nuance and subtlety." --W. Richard West Jr. (Founding Director of the National Museum of the American Indian), The Washington Post A century ago, U.S. policy aimed to sever the tribal allegiances of Native Americans, limit their ancient liberties, and coercively prepare them for citizenship. At the same time, millions of new immigrants sought their freedom by means of that same citizenship. Alan Trachtenberg argues that the two developments were, inevitably, juxtaposed: Indians and immigrants together preoccupied the public imagination, and together changed the idea of what it meant to be American. In Shades of Hiawatha, Trachtenberg eloquently suggests that we must re-create America's tribal creation story in new ways if we are to reaffirm its beckoning promise of universal liberty.
