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

Sweet and delicate
I love this necklace! With its size being so small, it’s delicate and subtle. While the engraving is very small and needs a close look to actually read, I love it that way. I wear it to honor my dog who’s passed, not for the sake of others reading it, so who cares if the engraving is tiny. I know her name is there and it’s a beautiful accessory for any outfit, while allowing me to honor the memory of her.

Cute necklace and earrings.
I love the necklace. It’s kinda small, but works well if you want to wear it with another necklace. I also love the free pair of heart earrings that look very nice with the necklace.

VERY VERY HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED! WASTE OF MONEY!
Don't waste your money! The description states that the image is enlarged to show detail and that the actual item is smaller - BUT it does not tell you that you can't even tell the pendant is a paw print. I got three paws, with engraving, and the whole thing looks like a blob of gold nothing. As you would then expect you can not even see anything that is engraved! Why waste the time? If you are not going to be able to see it, why have it?
I can't express deeply enough how extremely disappointing this necklace is. It is cheap and thin and very small.
Of course, because it was engraved I can't return it. Buyer beware! Don't waste your time or money! This item is a huge rip off!
