From the Deep Woods to Civilization (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781497859685)

""From The Deep Woods To Civilization"" is a memoir written by Charles A. Eastman, a Native American who was born and raised in the deep woods of Minnesota in the mid-19th century. The book chronicles Eastman's life, from his early childhood spent with his family in the wilderness, to his education at a mission school, and ultimately to his assimilation into white American culture. Throughout the book, Eastman reflects on the challenges he faced as a Native American trying to navigate the complex and often hostile world of white American society. He discusses his experiences with racism, discrimination, and cultural assimilation, as well as the ways in which he tried to reconcile his Native American heritage with his new life in the modern world. ""From The Deep Woods To Civilization"" is a powerful and insightful account of one man's journey from a traditional Native American upbringing to a life in mainstream American society. It offers a unique perspective on the complex history of Native American assimilation and the ongoing struggles faced by indigenous communities in the United States today.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1916 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
