by Charles Alexander Eastman

This book explores the lives and accomplishments of prominent Native American leaders and chiefs. The author, Charles Alexander Eastman, who himself was a member of the Santee Sioux tribe, presents these figures in a nuanced light, highlighting their contributions to their communities and their cultures. He aims to provide a more accurate and sympathetic portrayal of these historical figures than the often-negative or romanticized accounts prevalent at the time.
