Herman Lehmann's 'Nine Years Among the Indians: 1870-1879' provides a compelling firsthand account of his experiences living among Native American tribes during a pivotal period in American history. Through vivid storytelling, Lehmann offers a unique perspective on the cultural interactions and conflicts that characterized the American frontier in the late 19th century. The book is written in a straightforward, no-nonsense style that immerses readers in the day-to-day challenges and triumphs of Lehmann's time with the Indians. It serves as both a historical document and a gripping narrative that sheds light on a lesser-known aspect of American history. Herman Lehmann, a German American who was abducted by Apaches as a child and later adopted by the Comanche tribe, brings a personal and empathetic voice to the story. His firsthand experiences provide valuable insights into the customs, beliefs, and struggles of Native American communities, making his account both informative and engaging. Lehmann's unique background and deep connection to the indigenous peoples he lived among lend authenticity and nuance to his narrative. I highly recommend 'Nine Years Among the Indians: 1870-1879' to readers interested in frontier history, Native American studies, and personal narratives. Lehmann's book offers a captivating glimpse into a bygone era and challenges readers to reconsider their preconceptions about the complexities of cultural exchange and adaptation on the American frontier.
Plains Indian History and Culture, an engaging collection of articles and essays, reflects John C. Ewers multifaceted approach to Indian history, an approach that combines his far-reaching interest in American history generally, his professional training in anthropology, and his many decades of experience as a field-worker and museum curator. The author has drawn on interviews collected during a quarter-century of fieldwork with Indian elders, who in recalling their own experiences during the buffalo days, revealed unique insights into Plains Indian life. Ewers use his expertise in examining Indian-made artifacts and drawings as well as photographs taken by non-Indian artists who had firsthand contact with Indians. He throws new light on important changes in Plains Indian culture, on the history of intertribal relations, and on Indian relation with whites—traders, missionaries, soldiers, settlers, and the U.S. Government.
