Indian Child Life is a book written by Charles A. Eastman, a Native American author and physician. The book provides a detailed and insightful portrayal of the daily life of Native American children in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Eastman draws upon his own childhood experiences as a member of the Santee Dakota tribe and his knowledge of other Native American cultures to paint a vivid picture of the customs, beliefs, and traditions of these children. The book covers a wide range of topics, including family life, education, play, and spirituality. Eastman describes the roles of parents, grandparents, and other family members in raising children, as well as the importance of storytelling, music, and dance in Native American culture. He also discusses the challenges faced by Native American children in adapting to the changing world around them, including the impact of colonization and the forced assimilation policies of the US government. Overall, Indian Child Life is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning more about Native American culture and history, particularly from the perspective of a Native American author. The book provides a unique and personal insight into the lives of Native American children, and highlights the resilience and strength of these communities in the face of adversity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
