Students with an interest in northern plains Indians, specifically the Sioux, should have at least a passing knowledge of the books listed below. The list is not comprehensive but its concentration is on Indian authors except for areas not yet filled by our own academic efforts. Two examples would be Royal Hassrick and Omer Stewarts's publications. I anticipate these particular areas will soon be rewritten from the Indian point of view.

Readings of and by American Indians which share stories of their existence helps us understand their lifestyles and thought world. For those reasons I suggest you peruse the books listed below. As you read, awareness of cultural norms become readily apparent. Interaction between relatives, physically present and those who have passed on, provides an outstanding example of Ella C. Deloria's admonition: "the ultimate aim of Dakota life, stripped of accessories, was quite simple: One must obey kinship rules; one must be a good relative (Speaking of Indians, 17)." Read and enjoy.
