Publisher's Synopsis

Excerpt from Indian Heroes and Great Chieftains

Friends, said Red Cloud, it has been our misfortune to welcome the white man. We have been deceived. He brought with him some shining things that pleased our eyes; he brought weapons more effective than our own above all, he brought the spirit water that makes one forget for a time old age, weakness, and sorrow. But I wish to say to you that if you would possess these things for yourselves, you must begin anew and put away the wisdom of your fathers. You must lay up food, and forget the hungry. When your house is built, your storeroom filled, then look around for a neighbor whom you can take at a disadvantage, and seize all that he has!

Give away only what you do not want; or rather, do not part with any of your posses sions unless in exchange for another's.
