Based on the life of the author and members of her tribe, these stories provide a revealing glimpse into the world of the Dakota-Sioux at the turn of the last century.

"There is no great; there is no small; in the mind that causeth all." - Zitkala-Sa

The audiobook is divided into two volumes. Volume One is based on the experiences of the author, and describes a young girl growing up in a changing environment. Volume Two consists of revealing stories about other members of her tribe.

Volume One:

• Impressions of an Indian Childhood
• The School Days of an Indian Girl
• An Indian Teacher Among Indians
• The Great Spirit

Volume Two:

• The Soft-Hearted Sioux
• The Trial Path
• A Warrior's Daughter
• A Dream of Her Grandfather
• The Widespread Enigma Concerning Blue-Star Woman

Abridgement: The last chapter, "America's Indian Problem", was removed; as it is only a (now irrelevant) open letter to the former President Taft's administration.
