Draws on diary entries and correspondence from students to tell the story of the early years of Haskell Institute, a government boarding school designed to "civilize" and acculturate Indians to Anglo-American ideals. Reveals how both resistance against and compliance with the dominant culture unified the students and erased traditional barriers between tribes.
