from the preface-
The popular opinion of the American Indian has, for generations, been based upon prejudice and ignorance - as thoughtless as it is unreasoning & unjust. The red man of America may be no saint, but he is at least a man, and should not be condemned unheard. He has his side of the story quite as much as has his white conqueror.
Desire, acquisition, superiority, indifference -these have been the steps toward the ostracism that has been visited upon the American Indian, denying him justice & opportunity for advancement since the earliest days of white occupation. It is these barriers to progress that have alike created and complicated the vexed Indian problem.....The mistreatment of the Indian, a recent writer declares, is one of the abuses of the age, and one of the reproaches of civilization.
