Being Dakota: Tales and Traditions of the Sisseton and Wahpeton de Amos E. Oneroad

Being Dakota: Tales and Traditions of the Sisseton and Wahpeton

Autor Amos E. Oneroad, Alanson B. Skinner Editat de Laura L. Anderson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 iun 2005
A CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title. 

Amos E. Oneroad moved in two worlds. Educated in traditional Dakota ways, he also earned a divinity degree from Columbia University and become a Presbyterian minister. In 1914 he began working with Alanson B. Skinner, a student of anthropology whom he met in New York City. Oneroad wrote these stories; Skinner planned to edit and publish the work. But Skinner's untimely death in 1925 thwarted their plans, and the manuscript languished for seventy-five years in a California library. Laura L. Anderson, who teaches anthropology at the University of Oklahoma, has edited this unusual document, which offers a fresh look at what it means to be Dakota.
