Description:
"In 1883, 12-year old Canowicakte boarded a train on the Rosebud Indian Reservation. Raised as a traditional Lakota, he found Carlisle Indian School. Renamed Chauncey Yellow Robe, he flourished at Carlisle and went on to work at Indian boarding schools. He was adamant that Indians should maintain their identity and was a critic of their demeaning portrayal"--Provided by publisher.
