  • 5.0 out of 5 stars from Amazon Customer -- Beyond the stereotype of an American Indian : Wonderful stories written by an actual American Indian. I initially bought it on impulse because it was $4. I was very impressed with the concise modern writing style, especially since the author wrote it in the early1900's. The first third of the book is a memoir of her childhood in a Sioux village on the Mississippi. She grew up in the transition period when tribes became confined to reservations and forced to cope with fundamental cultural change. I was so impressed by this short easily read book, that I asked my book club to read it. I would recommend it to anyone interested in American Indians.

  • 5.0 out of 5 stars from M. M. Hennessy -- Inspiring American Indian Woman tells about her life in two worlds : I wanted a copy of Zitkala-Sa's writings because she was one of the first Native women to write of her experiences in that transitional part of our history. The fact that she bridged between both worlds (European and Indigenous) and went on to help her people is inspiring. I need stories to inspire me now that we are dealing with so much corruption and venal behavior in our country. ( Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2018 )
  • 5.0 out of 5 stars from JGar -- Gone Forever : In this anthology, Zitkala-Sa provides an autobiography, a series of historical short stories, and an essay on the future of the American Indian. ( Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2016 )
  • 5.0 out of 5 stars from Amazon Customer -- Stories of American Indian Life : This book contains stories about the culture clash between American Indians and American Europeans. The author lived between 1876 and 1938, so all the stories are contemporary to her life. Zitkala-Sa was an American Indian woman, so the stories are all presented from that point of view. And I really hadn't realized how little I knew about the American Indian perspective until I read this. I'd imagined, of course, but this was without the usual European-centric flavor I hadn't ever realized I'd been experiencing. ( Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2011 )
  • 5.0 out of 5 stars from Walter F. Rice -- beautifully told stories : Zitkala-Sa was a remarkable woman, especially for her time because she was a woman and an Indian and her writings had to penetrate the white press, and white prejudice. She was acceptionally talented as an orator, a musician and a story teller. She was an Ihanktonwan (Yankton Sioux)) who was born in 1876, the same year as the Battle of the Little Big Horn. Her early years were during the transitional period, before much of the bureaucratic brutality of the U S Indian service took control of the Sioux. She vividly brought to life early childhood memories and her innocence and along with it her search and her relections of all living things to find the Devine in all of life. With this also came extended families who shared their worldly goods. Such a life was not perfect because warfare with other tribes was also a part of life. Their way of life did lack the corruption of the big Corporations, and the poisonous corruption of people who are out for themselves, and just wanted to make it to the top at others expense. These two factors made for a way of life that dispossessed the weak, those born near the bottom of society, and, also, whoever else was there for the taking. I have never liked Christianiy, but not because of Jesus' teachings. Because people can be terrible, who are out for themselves alone, and yet be saved because they accept Jesus personally. People who are good and not Christian, whether or not they have heard of Christianity are damned.(I am getting away from this book, but the American Indians were mainly not Christian for a long time, and Zitkala-Sa was not a Cristian).

  • 5.0 out of 5 stars from mikeatronic -- Stories that provide truth in understanding : Not sure what to say about this book but this, the history of America is not what we were taught in school. The stories are captivating and work as examples of how people of the First Nation were affected by a changing world into which they were thrown. ( Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2021 )
  • 2.0 out of 5 stars from Amazon Customer -- True or fictional? : I couldn't get into this book. Wasn't sure whether it was fact or fiction based on true events. OK for price. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 30, 2016 )
  • 5.0 out of 5 stars from Michael Peter Ansell -- Great insight into the American Indian way of life : This book was a real eye opener into the American Indian way of life. It answers the question as to how the USA became the land of the free, it exploited the AMERICAN INDIAN. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 2, 2015 )
  • 5.0 out of 5 stars from Happy Woman -- Tragic story of abuse and genocide of indigenous population by white settlers. : Tragedy of the nation decimated, demoralized, conned, abused and humiliated by "civilized" settlers. It will teach you humility in case you consider Western culture superior. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 9, 2014 )
  • 1.0 out of 5 stars from Margaret Grant Author -- Treading through treacle. : Treading through treacle. Only really useful to a serious student of North American Indian Human Rights. Eye opening for some people. ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 18, 2016 )
  • 5.0 out of 5 stars from Frank -- excellent : Excellent portrayal of the injustices done by the explorers and non native americans lesson together be learnt here america !!!! ( Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 3, 2014 )
