This is the spirited story of Esther Burnett Horne, an accomplished and inspiring educator in Indian boarding schools. Born in 1909, Horne attended Haskell Indian Institute in Lawrence, Kansas, and often visited relatives on the Shoshone Wind River Reservation in Wyoming. Motivated by teachers like Ella Deloria and Ruth Muskrat Bronson, Horne devoted her life to educating other Indian children. She began teaching at the Wahpeton Indian School in Wahpeton, North Dakota, in 1930 and has remained active in education to the present day. Her experiences as student and teacher have enabled Horne to provide a detailed portrait of Indian boarding schools. We learn about daily life at Haskell and about the challenges and rewards of teaching for the Bureau of Indian Affairs at Wahpeton. Above all, Horne's life illuminates the ongoing struggle by Native teachers and students to retain their cultural identities within a government educational system designed to assimilate them. Esther Horne and Sally McBeth developed this life history in a truly collaborative manner. McBeth carefully documented both Horne's personal history and the creation of this work. What emerges is an engaging and informative narrative about education and identity.Binding Type: Paperback

Reliable Paper I Keep Coming Back To.
Size: 500 Sheets (20lb)
’ve been buying this paper for the second year now, and it’s been consistently great. It works well for everyday printing—no jams, good quality, and nice bright white color.
It’s not the thickest paper, but for the price it does exactly what I need for home and office use. Definitely a reliable and affordable option I’ll keep repurchasing.

Nice feeling paper.
Size: 800 Sheets (24lb)
Very nice paper. It has a good smooth feel to it on top of a nice weight. I haven’t had any problems with it getting jammed in the printer.

Exactly As Advertised
Size: 500 Sheets (20lb)
What can you say about printer paper? It needs to be the right size, the right weight, the right color. This fits all those requirements perfectly. I only take away one star because it is so Basic, just like the title says: it is printer/typing paper and it does a great job of that. It does not cost an arm and a leg, like some paper does. I have run half a ream through my printer so far and no jams or misfeeds.
