“In this definitive biography, Tadeusz Lewandowski carefully chronicles the challenges that Ger-trude Simmons Bonnin (Zitkala-Ša), her Dakota Nation, and many Native Americans endured during her lifetime. Red Bird, Red Power is a must-read for those interested in this remarkable woman and the history of Native and non-Native relations during the first half of the twentieth century.”
