The Ghost Dance Religion And The Sioux Outbreak Of 1890 is a historical book written by James Mooney. The book focuses on the Ghost Dance religion and its role in the Sioux Outbreak of 1890, also known as the Wounded Knee Massacre. Mooney, an ethnographer and anthropologist, provides a detailed account of the Ghost Dance movement and its spread among Native American tribes in the late 19th century. He also delves into the political and social context of the time, including the impact of government policies on Native American communities. The book includes firsthand accounts from Sioux leaders and participants in the Ghost Dance, as well as government officials and military personnel involved in the conflict. Mooney's work sheds light on the complex cultural and historical factors that contributed to the tragic events of 1890 and offers a nuanced perspective on the Ghost Dance and its significance in Native American history.Fourteenth Annual Report Of The Bureau Of Ethnology To The Secretary Of The Smithsonian Institution 1892-93 By J.
