Half-Sun on the Columbia: A Biography of Chief… par Dr. Robert H. Ruby M.D.

Found this book in a used book store in Bend Oregon. Its a journalistic style biography of chief Moses, with lots of newspaper, government documents and interviews. I was particularly interested in the descriptions of how the land looked during that time (Niagra sized waterfalls on the Columbia) and what plants were important (camas and bunchgrass). What were the Wenatchee fisheries?

The Oglala Sioux warriors in transition par Robert H. Ruby

From the flap: "This contribution to the folklore and history of the Oglalas is a piece of highly interesting Americana..." I'll read it and see if it lives up to the hype.
