Their religious beliefs, tribal politics, family life, and conflict with the white man's ways are recreated through the skills of two talented men. John Anderson's photographs, taken in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and now part of the collection of the Nebraska State Historical Society, represent one of the finest extant records of the Brule Sioux. The photographs were the product of forty~two years of close association with the Sioux while serving as manager of the Rosebud Agency Trading Post. In 1889, when the Sioux Land Commissioners came to the agency to induce the Brule people to sign their lands away, Anderson went along as the photographer for General George Crook. Paul Dyck, internationally known for his paintings of the American Indian, is eminently and uniquely qualified to edit and interpret this rare collection. In writing the informative text and captions for each photo, he drew upon his long and intimate knowledge of the Plains Indians. His insight and understanding light up the shadowed chapters of the past with a vivid, on~the~spot sense of reality. Paul Dyck, who has had innumerable oneman shows across the United States and whose work is included in both public and private collections, has had a lifelong fascination with the American Indian. Dyck has combined this intense interest in the American Indian and his remarkable artistic talent to produce hundreds of paintings on the Indian and his culture. He has lived with more than a dozen tribes and is the adopted son of Sioux warrior One Elk, and of the famous Blackfoot artist Lone Wolf. Born in 1917, the artist has made his home for more than forty years in Arizona's Verde Valley, where he has his studio and also maintains a working ranch. The illustration on the back of this dust jacket and the chapter illustrations were created as original works by Paul Dyck.
