Any writer who adds to the number of books on that ever fascinating subject, the American Indian, must owe thanks to many authors who have written about the Indians. My special thanks, for information concerning the customs and legends of the Sioux, are given to:

Joseph Kossuth Dixon, author of The Vanishing Race,

George Bird Grinnell, author of When Buffalo Ran,

Charles A. Eastman, author of Indian Boyhood,

Lewis Spence, author of The Myths of the North American Indians.

Grateful acknowledgment is made, also, of valuable information found in the Thirty-Second Report of the Bureau of American Ethnology.
