My Grandma took care of me when I was a child and to this day I look to elders for companionship and wisdom. And I am in my seventies! Most young people today do not think this way. The way of life of the Native Americans was recognized too late as being beneficial to humans and environment alike. We now know that we are destroying our beautiful earth and the simple explanations of the customs of the natives in Mr. Eastman's book bring that realization ever sharper. It is a very easy and enjoyable read. Of course we need progress, and Ohiyesa's father realized this when he sent the little boy to school. It was wonderful to read how he tried so very hard to help his people after he was educated. I would recommend this book to all. Review: Identity through cultural lifeways - An intimate look at what being raised as a Dakota boy to manhood really was about in the 19th century. Eastman was fortunate to be able to learn the old ways, values, teachings and ceremonies in a very structured process from esteemed elders and teachers who passed down knowledge from generations of experience. A must read for understanding the cultural upbringing of the Dakota People. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #631,629 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #310,001 in Literature & Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 70 Reviews | ## Images ![Indian Boyhood - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51DLXfu-TPL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Indian Boyhood *by L***U on August 25, 2013* What touched my heart the most was that the Uncle and Grandma took care of Ohiyesa when they thought his father had been killed.

I really enjoy first person accounts - everyone's life is an adventure especially if it differs from your experiences. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/181989008-indian-boyhood](https://www.desertcart.at/products/181989008-indian-boyhood) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-10-25*
