Raised in a home without books, Delphine Red Shirt relied on family and friends as her "books" and wove their stories into her own.

She participated in coming-of-age ceremonies and learned the special rules for stringing beads together and the messages conveyed by hairstyles. At the same time, Red Shirt became increasingly aware of the distance between her world and that of her ancestors.Ringing with insight and honesty, this memoir gives voice to an emerging generation of Lakota women who attempt to navigate the difficult paths of a bicultural world.[via]More editions of Bead on an Anthill: A Lakota Childhood:

› Find signed collectible books: 'A Book for Free Spirits'Book summary:This English translationthe first since 1909restores Human, All Too Human to its proper central position in the Nietzsche canon. First published in 1878, the book marks the philosophical coming of age of Friedrich Nietzsche. In it he rejects the romanticism of his early work, influenced by Wagner and Schopenhauer, and looks to enlightened reason and science. The "Free Spirit" enters, untrammeled by all accepted conventions, a precursor of Zarathustra. The result is 638 stunning aphorisms about everything under and above the sun.[via]More editions of A Book for Free Spirits:

The mounted operations of the campaign from organizational, strategic, and tactical viewpoints are examined thoroughly' - "Civil War Times Illustrated".'The author's graphic recountings of the Virginia fights at Brandy Station, Aldie, Middleburg, and Upperville, the Pennsylvania encounters at Hanover, Hunterstown, Gettysburg, and Fairfield, and finally the retreat to Virginia, are the finest this reviewer has read under a single cover. For those who enjoy the thunder of hoof beats, the clang of sabers, and the crack of pistols and carbines, this book has all of it. Generals and privates share the pages, as the mounted opponents parry and thrust across hundreds of miles of territory from June 9 to July 14, 1863' - "Civil War Times Illustrated".'Edward Longacre's study is a much-needed, long overdue piece of the complex mosaic which makes up the Gettysburg story. No Civil War Library should be without it. The volume adds an important perspective to one's understanding of this critical military operation' - "Military Images". Edward G. Longacre's books on the Civil War have won both the Fletcher Pratt Award of the Civil War Round Table of New York and the Moncado prize of the American Military Institute. They include "To Gettysburg and Beyond: The Twelfth New Jersey Volunteer Infantry", "II Corps", "Army of the Potomac, 1862-1865" (1988). [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Definitive Journals of Lewis & Clark: Through the Rockies to the Cascades'Book summary:Since the time of Columbus, explorers dreamed of a water passage across the North American continent. President Thomas Jefferson shared this dream. He conceived the Corps of Discovery to travel up the Missouri River to the Rocky Mountains and westward along possible river routes to the Pacific Ocean. Meriwether Lewis and William Clark led this expedition of 18046. Along the way they filled hundreds of notebook pages with observations of the geography, Indian tribes, and natural history of the trans-Mississippi West.[via]The late-summer and fall months of 1805 were the most difficult period of Lewis and Clark's journey. This volume documents their travels from the Three Forks of the Missouri River in present-day Montana to the Cascades of the Columbia River on today's Washington-Oregon border, including the expedition's progress over the rugged Bitterroot Mountains, along the nearly impenetrable Lolo Trail. Along the way, the explorers encounter Shoshones, Flatheads, Nez Perces, and other Indian tribes, some of whom had never before met white people.

Early Innings: A Documentary History of Baseball, 1825-1908by Dean A. SullivanISBN 0803292449 (0-8032-9244-9)
Softcover, Univ of Nebraska Pr
Find This Book
› Find signed collectible books: 'Early Innings: A Documentary History of Baseball, 1825-1908'Book summary:Until some scientific Babe Ruth perfects a prudent technique for time travel, the best way to experience a past rich with flavor and immediacy remains through access to primary, contemporary sources. The way it brings the past into the present, Early Innings should bill itself as a tour guide for armchair travel into baseball's beginnings and infancy.
Essentially, it's a scrapbook--carefully researched and assembled--of the game's evolution from the earliest published report of a "bass-ball" challenge match between Upstate New York teams in 1825 to the 1901 birth of the American League and the spurious 1908 report on the origin of the game that pitched the myth of Cooperstown and Abner Doubleday. Sullivan's sources run the bases from newspaper and periodical accounts to letters to excerpts from such documents as "Spalding's Official Baseball Guide," each packaged with individual introductions to lend context to the text.
Combining serious scholarship and fascinating journalism, Early Innings covers the kind of territory good center fielders dream of. Some of its more curious bits of ephemera: the first published account--with something resembling a box score--of a ball game in a New York paper from 1845; an 1856 defense of the game as a "manly exercise"; the 1862 obituary of James Creighton, one of the game's prehistoric stars; Henry Chadwick's 1867 "Ancient History of Baseball" (with, not surprisingly, no mention of Doubleday or Cooperstown at all); the document excluding blacks from the National Association of Base Ball Players; William Hulbert's original proposal to form the National League; a chronicle of the first game played under the lights--informally, in Nantucket; the rule change setting the current distance between the plate and the mound; John McGraw's defection from the Baltimore Orioles to the New York Giants; and the Boston Globe's account of Cy Young's defeat in the opening game of the first World Series. As extensive as it is appealing, Early Innings informs, instructs, entertains, and amazes, just like the game it sheds its light on. --Jeff Silverman [via]

› Find signed collectible books: 'Fort Meade & the Black Hills'Book summary:Fort meade was the home of the famous seventh cavalry after its ignominious defeat in the battle of the little bighorn. Troops from fort meade played a pivotal role in the events that led to the tragedy at wounded knee in 1890. It was the scene of imprisonment of ute indians who made the mistake of interpreting their new citizenship status as freedom from government control. The fort survived the mechanization of the horse cavalry, aided the record-breaking stratosphere balloon flight of 1935, and became a training site for the nation's first airborne troops. fort meade existed for sixty-six years, from 1878 to 1944. Robert lee examines the strategic importance of its location on the northern edge of the black hills and the role it played in the settlement of the region, as well as the role played by the citizens of sturgis in keeping it alive. One of the chief delights of fort meade and the black hills is a gallery of characters including the unfortunate major marcus reno, the beautiful and fatal ella sturgis, and the cigar-smoking poker alice tubbs. They, and events scaled to their larger-than-life size, are part of this long overdue story of fort meade [via]

This novel of horror, originally published in 1826, was rejected in its time and out of print from 1833 to 1963, when the first Bison Books edition appeared.

He was paid a monthly wage of $13.00, with an additional $1.30 combat pay per month. Setting off for what he later termed "the little wars that are the mere trivia of history," he came back to write "a mild chronicle of many little men who were painting on a big canvas, and of their little epic routines of life, with a common death at their elbow. It is only the little, but keen, tribulations that made the epic routine of an old-fashioned war."[via]More editions of The Little War of Private Post: The Spanish-American War Seen Up Close:

› Find signed collectible books: 'Second to None: A Documentary History of American Women from the Sixteenth Century to 1865'Book summary:"Tis woman's strongest vindication for speaking that the world needs to hear her voice," wrote Anna Julia Cooper, a nineteenth-century African American abolitionist, teacher, and novelist. Argu-ing that the voices of women still need to be heard, the editors of this comprehensive collection have assembled a diverse selection of writings to illustrate the daily lives of ordinary and extraordinary women and the historical significance of their thoughts and deeds.[via]Here are women who are shapers of history, as well as its victims. In diaries, letters, speeches, songs, petitions, essays, photographs, and cartoons they describe, rejoice, exhort, complain, advertise, and joke, revealing women's role as community builders in every time and locale and registering their emergence into the public spheres of political, social, and economic life. The documents also demonstrate the value of gender analysis, for women's differencesin age, race, sexual orientation, class, geographical or ethnic origin, abilities or disabilities, and valuesare shown to be as important as their commonalities.
Volume 1, which comprises 153 selections, opens with a Navajo origin myth and presents Native American, Hispanic, African, and Euro-American women from the sixteenth century through the Civil War. Both volumes include section introductions that set the historical stage and comment on the significance of the selections.

› Find signed collectible books: 'The Winning of the West: The Founding of the Trans-Allegheny Commonwealths 1784-1790 With Map'Book summary:After political defeats and the loss of half his capital in a ranching venture in North Dakota, Theodore Roosevelt began writing his ambitious history of the conquest of the American West in 1888. He projected a sweeping drama, well documented and filled with Americans fighting Indian confederacies north and south while dealing with the machinations of the British, French, and Spanish and their sympathizers. Roosevelt wanted to show how backwoodsmen such as Daniel Boone and Simon Kenton, followed by hardy pioneer settlers, gave the United States eventual claim to land west of the Alleghanies. Heroism and treachery among both the whites and the Indians can be seen in his rapidly shifting story of a people on the move. By force and by treaty the new nation was established in the East, and when the explorers and settlers pushed against the Mississippi, everything west of the river was considered part of that nation.This volume continues with the westward immigration via wilderness trails and keelboats on the Ohio. Roosevelt gives the whole unsettled picture after the Revolution, describing the separatist movement, the threat posed by the Spanish possessions, skirmishes with Indians incited by the British operating fur posts on the Great Lakes, the differences in the struggles for the Northwest and the Southwest and in their pioneering stock.[via]More editions of The Winning of the West: The Founding of the Trans-Allegheny Commonwealths 1784-1790 With Map:
