Paperback. Zustand: Good. In The Education of Clarence Three Stars, Philip Burnham tells the life story of the remarkable Packs the Dog, a member of the Minneconjou Lakotas who was born in 1864 east of the Black Hills. His father, Yellow Knife, died when the boy was five, and the family eventually enrolled at Pine Ridge Agency with the Oglalas under an uncle's name, Three Stars. In 1879 Packs the Dog joined the first class of Indian students to be admitted to the Carlisle Indian Industrial School. An enthusiastic student, Clarence Three Stars, as he would come to be known, was one of five Lakota children who volunteered to stay at Carlisle after the three-year plan of instruction was finished--though he eventually left the school in frustration. The life of Lakota advocate Three Stars spanned a time of dramatic change for Native Americans, from the pre-reservation period through the Dawes Act of 1887 until just before the Indian Reorganization Act of 1934. Three Stars was a teacher, interpreter, catechist, lawyer, and politician who lived through the federal policy of American Indian assimilation in its many guises, including boarding school education, religious conversion, land allotment, and political reorganization.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Amos and Ike is a fast-paced, humorous tale of friendship, discovery, and of how much we need one anotherAmos is a handyman who can fix anything in life except himself. He is thirty-two years old and back in the town he grew up in after eighteen months in prison and eight long years on the road. Ike Barnes is a seventeen-year-old wrestling with his father's death, delayed puberty, and a bad attitude. His mother can't handle him, so she ships him off to a suburb of Chicago where a good friend has offered to take care of Ike by having him work with Amos-their caretaker-for the summer. This appears to be a good idea on paper, but Amos is opposed to babysitting this kid-he has enough on his plate getting his life back on track; and Ike, too, balks at washing windows and cleaning pools-he's a musician, not a flunky monkey.Mixed together, Amos and Ike are nitroglycerin, and they soon discover their chemical reaction is indeed explosive (in a good way) as they help each other with redemption, rebellion, and finding love-one old and one new.…
