Synopsis "A Quaker Among the Indians (in English)"
Quaker, explorer and educator Thomas C. Battey or 'Thomissy' as the locals called him records his time spent among various Native American tribes, including the Caddoes and the Kiowas, during his days running a school for indigenous children. His book is mostly written in the form of a diary and is full of fascinating observations about a vanished way of life. There are reported conversations Battey had with notable chiefs such as Stumbling Bear and Kicking Bird with whom he interacted over issues pertaining to the school, the law, the US government and the local Indian Agency. Battey juggled many responsibilities uncomplainingly and with an open heart. He tells his remarkable story in a lively and engaging manner. Both informative and entertaining, A Quaker Among the Indians is a must-read for fans of American history.
