For six years, Elaine Goodale Eastman taught, hunted with, and lived among the Lakotas, who were experiencing profound changes as buffalo herds dwindled and they were forced to adjust to reservation life. Her informative and sometimes poignant recollections of those years tell much about the daily lives of the Lakotas and how they grappled with challenges to their way of life. Goodale Eastman witnessed the arrival and flowering of the Ghost Dance religion, visited with Sitting Bull shortly before his death, and in December 1890 was at Pine Ridge, where she and her future husband, Dr. Charles Eastman, cared for the survivors of the Wounded Knee massacre. \u003ci\u003eSister to the Sioux\u003c\/i\u003e bears witness to a critical and tragic era in Lakota history and reveals the frequently contradictory attitudes of outsiders drawn to them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elaine Goodale Eastman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0803267525\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780803267527\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bison Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 183\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.49lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.94h x 5.38w x 0.49d","brand":"Elaine Goodale Eastman","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43995604189439,"sku":"9780803267527","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d0c97e8e-e00f-4229-a22c-2bb7b914f1d4.jpg?v=1683336747","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/sister-to-the-sioux-second-elaine-goodale-eastman-9780803267527","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
