"Ohiyesa, a Dakota Indian also known as Charles Alexander Eastman, is one of America’s most fascinating and overlooked individuals. Born in Minnesota in 1858, he obtained postgraduate degrees (attending Dartmouth College and medical school at Boston University), and advised U.S. presidents. This beautifully packaged reissue contains Ohiyesa’s insights on spirit, the human experience, and white culture’s impact on Native American culture."

*This book contains excerpts of
Ohiyesa's (Charles Alexander Eastman) several books. Could work for older elementary students as well. This is a wonderful and thought provoking book by a Native person. Be sure to read about his accomplishments outside of being a writer!
