| Summary |
"Written in the 1850's by Henry Hastings Sibley, recorded first hand from Iron Face, a half-breed Sioux warrior and scout. Frazer, also was a half-breed born and raised in a Sioux village. Includes information on the Black Hawk War and the Minnesota Massacre. Vestal says, "We are lucky, I think, to have this story in any form. Its chief service is a tool to help us understand a kind of life now gone forever." Stanley Vestal states that this volume presents a close-up picture of the Indians. Jack Frazer was a half-breed whose Sioux name was Iron Face. "There is no lace or perfume in theis book, no gilding of the aboriginal lily..." With Introduction And Notes By Theodore C. Blegen And Sara A. Davidson."-- Provided by Freading. |
