Book excerpt: The Sioux bands from the Upper Midwest are the main subject of Old Indian Days' tales, which are set during the reservation era and had little interaction with white people. Charles A. Eastman, a mixed-blood Sioux best known as the author of almost a dozen novels, wrote about his people's traditional life, rituals, loving family ties, respect for animals, and survival. He is one of the few Indian writers who are both storytellers and oral historians. Old Indian Days, first published in 1907, relates to historical people such as Little Crow and Tamahay, as well as events Eastman witnessed as a boy, the 1862 Sioux Rebellion in Minnesota.
