From the publisher
First line
While the white man was calling the Indian woman a drudge, old He dog, at ninety-two, told me: "It is well to be good to women in the strength of our manhood because we must sit under their hands at both ends of our lives."
From the rear cover
Based on interviews and life histories collected over more than twenty-five years of study on the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota, Marla N. Powers conveys what it means to be an Oglala woman.
