What reading level is The Dacotah Tribes Their Beliefs And Our Duty to Them Outlined book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" When asked his reason, he replied that "it would bring churches. " " Don't you want churches?" was the next inquiry. "No, no, " he answered, " it will teach us to quarrel about God, as the Catholics and Protestants do. We fight each other, but we don't want to learn to fight about God. " When asked to sell his reservation, he sharply replied : u Do you believe that we came out of the bosom of the Earth? I know you do. Then the earth is our mother. Would you sell your mother ? I never will sel...l my mother. " Their mode of burial by raising the dead upon platforms, above the reach of wild beasts, until the dust returns to mother earth, is full of strange fancies. Their dread of being hanged is due to their fear that as the spirit leaves the body while the feet are above the earth, it will be doomed to the loss of all capacity for walking and running hereafter, the most horrible of fates for the red man whose hope and joy are in physical bliss alone.
One more phase of the red man's life is pertinent to this inquiry.
