Description

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 . . ."
