My Indian Boyhood Lumbee and John TrudellAlthough the traditional Sioux nation was in its last days when Luther Standing Bear was born in the 1860s, he was raised in the ancestral manner to be a successful hunter and warrior and a respectful and productive member of Sioux society. Known as Plenty Kill, young Standing Bear belonged to the Western Sioux tribe that inhabited present day North and South Dakota. In My Indian Boyhood he describes the home life and education of Indian children.
