Tah-Koo Wah-Kan: Or The Gospel Among The Dakotas is a book written by Stephen R. Riggs and published in 1869. The book is a detailed account of the author's experiences as a missionary among the Dakota people in Minnesota during the mid-19th century. Riggs describes the challenges he faced in trying to spread the Christian gospel among the Dakota people, who had their own unique culture and beliefs. He also provides insight into the Dakota way of life, including their customs, traditions, and language. Throughout the book, Riggs emphasizes the importance of learning the Dakota language in order to effectively communicate with the people he was trying to convert. He also discusses the impact of the Dakota War of 1862, which had a significant impact on both the Dakota people and the missionaries who worked with them. Tah-Koo Wah-Kan: Or The Gospel Among The Dakotas is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the interactions between European-American missionaries and Native American communities during a tumultuous period in American history. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of the Dakota people, the history of Christianity in America, or the history of the American West.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
