"Among the Sioux" is a collection of sketches depicting missionary life among the said tribe of Native Americans. The sketches which make up this little volume are of absorbing interest, and are prepared by one who is abundantly qualified to do so. Rev. R.J. Creswell had large personal acquaintance with many of those of whom he writes and had for years been a diligent student of missionary effort among the Sioux. His frequent contributions to the periodicals on this subject received marked attention. Several of them he gathers together and reprints in this volume, so that while it is not a consecutive history of the Sioux missions it furnishes an admirable survey of the labors of the heroic men and women who have spent their lives in this cause, and furnishes even more interesting reading of their biographies.
