American Indian women : telling their lives

Bataille, Gretchen M. (Author). Sands, Kathleen M. (Added Author).

Summary: Indian women's autobiographies have been slighted because of the assumption that women had a secondary and insignificant role in Indian society. Gretchen M. Bataille and Kathleen Mullen Sands cogently demonstrate in this book the creative vitality of autobiographies that, despite differences in style and purpose, clarify the centrality of women in American Indian cultures. Included is a comprehensive, annotated bibliography of works by and about American Indian women.
