Jeanne et Gabriel coulent des jours heureux depuis la création de « Lakota Ranch ». Satisfaits d’avoir pu mener à bien ce projet qui leur tenait tant à coeur, ce couple radieux, accompagné de sympathiques proches parents, veille à la bonne activité de cette joyeuse ferme. Cependant, le départ soudain de Gabriel pour les Etats-Unis viendra ternir cette douce harmonie. Mais ce retour nécessaire sur les traces de ses ancêtres amérindiens s’imposait, ce dernier n’ayant jamais foulé la terre qui vit naître ses parents. Esseulée, Jeanne pourra néanmoins compter sur le soutien de ses amis et d’une famille toujours disponible, malgré la douleur engendrée par l’absence de son mari. Récit émouvant que celui de cette chaleureuse famille où la force des liens fraternels permet de surpasser le sentiment de nostalgie persistant de son héroïne. Une générosité inéluctable traverse cet ouvrage empli de personnalités colorées et passionnées, toujours solidaires. « Lakota Ranch » aborde la thématique de l’absence avec justesse et pudeur en se focalisant sur la complexité des sentiments ressentis par une femme privée de l’être aimé. Une oeuvre délicate et émouvante.

On December 28, 1894, the day before the fourth anniversary of the massacre at Wounded Knee, Lakota chief Two Sticks was hanged in Deadwood, South Dakota. The headline in the Black Hills Daily Times the next day read “A GOOD INDIAN”—a spiteful turn on the infamous saying “The only good Indian is a dead Indian.” On the gallows, Two Sticks, known among his people as Can Nopa Uhah, declared, “My heart knows I am not guilty and I am happy.” Indeed, years later, convincing evidence emerged supporting his claim. The story of Two Sticks, as recounted in compelling detail in this book, is at once the righting of a historical wrong and a record of the injustices visited upon the Lakota in the wake of Wounded Knee. The Indian unrest of 1890 did not end with the massacre, as the government willfully neglected, mismanaged, and exploited the Oglala in a relentless, if unofficial, policy of racial genocide that continues to haunt the Black Hills today. In From Wounded Knee to the Gallows, Philip S. Hall and Mary Solon Lewis mine government records, newspaper accounts, and unpublished manuscripts to give a clear and candid account of the Oglala’s struggles, as reflected and perhaps epitomized in Two Sticks’s life and the miscarriage of justice that ended with his death. Bracketed by the run-up to, and craven political motivation behind, Wounded Knee and the later revelations establishing Two Sticks’s innocence, this is a history of a people threatened with extinction and of one man felled in a battle for survival hopelessly weighted in the white man’s favor. With eyewitness immediacy, this rigorously researched and deeply informed account at long last makes plain the painful truth behind a dark period in U.S. history.

STOLEN from the Lakota people: the glorious beauty of the Black Hills located in South Dakota and Wyoming, also known as Paha Sapa, that radiated for miles receiving their name due to the closely woven foliage that forms their unique, rich color of blackish-green. Paha Sapa was the center of their universe where all creatures were created from. The loss of Paha Sapa to the Lakota people was the turning point in their heritage and their spiritual culture. After being confined to a reservation and following a lifetime of preventing the Whites from stealing resources from his sacred land, a 40 year old once-feared Lakota warrior begins recruiting allies for a legal journey to reclaim Paha Sapa for his people. In his quest during the 1880s, he experiences new things for the first time being thrust into a White man's way of life as if seeing it through the eyes of a child. He enlists the help of a Lakota tribe member educated by the White man and a fiercely independent White woman rancher who restores his faith that he is not alone in his fight for his land, freedom and spirit. She finds a new mission in life - to bring awareness to the theft of Paha Sapa. This independent woman discovers love for the first time in an aging Lakota warrior - beginning a love story that becomes legendary. He fights next to her when her treacherous neighbor tries to steal her ranch, legacy, and her very life. Lakota customs and legends unfold as this courageous warrior tells his story and about the wrongdoings that they have faced. The heroine's ranchhands are misfits who aren't accepted anywhere other than working for a woman in that era, which adds even more character to their lives. This strong woman brings together nationalities from many heritages to live and work under the same umbrella of unity. The tribe member educated by the Whites devotedly dedicates his life for the legal crusade that the Lakota face in the regaining of their sacred Paha Sapa. Snakes in Paha Sapa leads the reader through endless adventure, a multitude of action, sprinkled with historic elements, and a bit of humor. Author Cyndie M. Styles, also of Crossing Burning Bridges, brings intrigue to the many startling events that happen along the way which keeps the story emotionally-charged, interesting, educational, romantic and entertaining from the courageous people living at the Paradise Valley Ranch.

From April to November 1935 in Belgium, fifteen Lakotas enacted their culture on a world stage. Wearing beaded moccasins and eagle-feather headdresses, they set up tepees, danced, and demonstrated marksmanship and horse taming for the twenty million visitors to the Brussels International Exposition, a grand event similar to a world’s fair. The performers then turned homeward, leaving behind 157 pieces of Lakota culture that they had used in the exposition, ranging from costumery to weaponry. In Lakota Performers in Europe, author Steve Friesen tells the story of these artifacts, forgotten until recently, and of the Lakota performers who used them. The 1935 exposition marked a culmination of more than a century of European travel by American Indian performers, and of Europeans’ fascination with Native culture, fanned in part by William F. “Buffalo Bill” Cody’s Wild West from the late 1800s through 1913. Although European newspaper reports often stereotyped Native performers as “savages,” American Indians were drawn to participate by the opportunity to practice traditional aspects of their culture, earn better wages, and see the world. When the organizers of the 1935 exposition wanted to include an American Indian village, Sam Lone Bear, Thomas and Sallie Stabber, Joe Little Moon, and other Lakotas were eager to participate. By doing this, they were able to preserve their culture and influence European attitudes toward it. Friesen narrates these Lakotas' experiences abroad. In the process, he also tells the tale of collector François Chladiuk, who acquired the Lakotas’ artifacts in 2004. More than 300 color and black-and-white photographs document the collection of items used by the performers during the exposition. Friesen portrays a time when American Indians—who would not long after return to Europe as allies and liberators in military garb—appeared on the international stage as ambassadors of the American West. Lakota Performers in Europe offers a complex view of a vibrant culture practiced and preserved against tremendous odds.

In a 1953 effort to end the authority of local Native American governments, Congress passed Public Law 83-280. Allowing states to apply their criminal and civil laws to Native American country, the law provided an unparalleled opportunity for the state of South Dakota to crush burgeoning Lakota nationalism. Edward Valandra's Not Without Our Consent documents the tenacious and formidable Lakota resistance to attempts at applying this law. In unprecedented depth, it follows their struggle through the 1950s when, against all odds, their resistance succeeded in the amendment of PL 83-280 to include Native consent as a prerequisite to state jurisdiction. The various House and Senate bills discussed in the manuscript are reproduced in five appendices.

Throughout the world, the cowboy is an instantly recognized symbol of the North American West. Legends of Our Times breaks the stereotype of 'cowboys and Indians' to show an almost unknown side of the West. It tells the story of some of the first cowboys -- Native peoples of the northern Plains and Plateau. Through stories, poetry, art, and reminiscences in this lavishly illustrated work, Native people invite the reader on a fascinating journey into the world of ranching and rodeo. The book also presents the special relationship between Native people and animals such as the horse, buffalo, deer, and dog, which have always played an important role in Native spiritual and economic life. By the mid-nineteenth century, Native people were highly valued for their skills in horse breeding and herding, and could take advantage of new economic opportunities in the emerging ranching industry. Faced with limited resources, competition for land, and control by governments and Indian agents, many Native people still managed to develop their own herds or to find work as cowboys. As the ways of the Old West changed, new forms of entertainment and sport evolved. Impresarios such as Buffalo Bill Cody invented the Wild West show, employing Native actors and stunt performers to dramatize scenes from the history of the West and to demonstrate the friendly competitions that cowboys enjoyed at the end of a long round-up or cattle drive. The popularity of rodeos also grew within Native communities, and arenas were built on many reserves. Native rodeos are still held, while many Native competitors ride in professional rodeos as well. Today, Plains and Plateau peoples proudly continue a long tradition of cowboying. Legends of Our Times is a celebration of their rich contribution to ranching and rodeo life.
