Planting The Outposts: Thirty-Five Years Among The Children Of The Plains is a book written by Robert Frederick Sulzer and published in 1913. The book is a memoir of Sulzer's experiences as a missionary and teacher among the Native American children of the Great Plains region of the United States. Sulzer describes the challenges and rewards of working with the children, who had been displaced from their traditional way of life and were struggling to adapt to the changes brought on by white settlers. He writes about the cultural differences he encountered and the efforts he made to bridge the gap between the two worlds.The book also includes stories of individual children and their families, as well as accounts of the daily life and activities of the mission school. Sulzer's writing is compassionate and insightful, and he provides a unique perspective on the history and culture of the Plains tribes during a time of great transition.Overall, Planting The Outposts is a fascinating and engaging read, offering a glimpse into a little-known chapter of American history and the efforts of one man to make a difference in the lives of the children he served.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
