Excerpt from Teepee Neighbors
Thus does the Indian know the white man; thus, and in the light of his own Old evil stories of the past. It is not to be wondered at that he regards him as an altogether unadmirable individual. The sketch called Civilization is entirely typical of his mental attitude toward his white neighbor. By far the most harrowing fact of reservation life is the great, omnipresent, overwhelming and constant nearness of death. Indeed, death is no more at home On the river Styx itself than within the boundary lines of the ordinary reservation.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an anthropological study of life on an Indian reservation in Wyoming during the early 20th century.

The book offers a fascinating look at the often-overlooked intersection of Native American experience and the forces of assimilation and modernity. It explores themes of cultural identity, resilience, courage, and loss. The author writes with a deep understanding of the human condition, and the result is a powerful and moving account of a people in transition.
