In doing so, this work will also add to the history of progressivism in Nebraska. As a lifelong progressive Republican—an oxymoron in today's political idiom—Sorensen, father of Ted Sorensen of the Kennedy administration, was the oldest of ten children in a family of strict Danish religious pacifists. After his expulsion from Grand Island Baptist College for not amending his speech in an oratory contest, he transferred to the University of Nebraska where he was editor of the Daily Nebraskan and fought to keep the US out of World War I. He was a member of Henry Ford's peace ship, friends with peace advocates Rebecca Shelley (or Shelly) and Lella Faye Secor, as well as a member of the last national pacifist organization, the People's Council of America. Although he amended his pacifist views near the end of the war, he continued to fight against the repression of civil liberties carried out by the Nebraska State Council of Defense and acted as attorney for the persecuted agrarian Nonpartisan League in Nebraska. After organizing the farmer-labor convention in 1920 and the Progressive Party of Nebraska in 1921, he was instrumental in electing two progressive Republicans to the US Senate: Robert B. Howell and George W. Norris. Later, he served as attorney general of Nebraska (1928–1932) for two terms.","PeriodicalId":12757,"journal":{"name":"Great Plains Quarterly","volume":"42 1","pages":"237 - 263"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47747926","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It takes the reader on a journey that is both ambitious in its scope and impressive in its presentation. Although it is one continuous study, the encyclopedia portion of the study is presented in months or seasons within a year, beginning with 1765 and ending in 1899. Aside from the phenomenal entries and photographs featuring women’s astonishing accomplishments in all the arts, ranging from weaving, gardening, and painting, to knife throwing, sharpshooting, and lion taming, Snodgrass added enormously to the utility of this book with extra features. Her acknowledgment section alone is a treasure trove of curators, archivists, advisors, and directors of repositories in the West. A glossary of art terms and a detailed index of both names and topics add to the reference material. Four appendixes provide extensive lists of the women featured in the encyclopedia section, arranged by genres, the states where they were situated, their ethnicities, and chronological events of note throughout the world during the years of study. These add a depth beyond the basic entries that provokes new methods of teaching, learning, researching, and writing. The format allows Snodgrass to take her readers on a journey to new and varied frontiers. The chronological structure highlights both the multiple and varied contributions women made, from basic survival to monumental achievements, not to mention making readers question how many more must have been excluded. Snodgrass connects women to the western migration experience in an intimate and vital way, highlighting missing or scattered knowledge in the history of the West, women’s history, and the American story. This fabulous resource will be a valuable tool for professional and casual historians alike.","PeriodicalId":12757,"journal":{"name":"Great Plains Quarterly","volume":"42 1","pages":"269 - 269"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42565971","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Paul Hedren, the editor of this volume, has devoted much of his life to studying this war, and his knowledge proves invaluable here. Hedren breaks down Finerty’s work chronologically. Hedren’s footnotes provide important crossreferences between other reporters, soldiers, and Finerty himself. In large part thanks to the digital revolution, Hedren produced a work that would have taken a lifetime or more in the preinternet era. What emerges is a resplendent telling of a complicated war, complete with brutal realism as well as flawed human understanding of the Indigenous people with whom the army fought. Finerty was a brilliant wordsmith with an eye for good stories. What emerges from the pages of this book is a better understanding of his thoughts on army officers, the Lakota, and some of the settlers in the Dakota Territory. The reporter was a creature of his times, though, and often only saw Indigenous people as worthy of being swept aside in the march toward modern civilization. If “Indian” were replaced by “Irish,” Finerty could have written an account from an English newspaper about Ireland. The parallels seem lost on him, though. Thankfully for modern historians, Paul Hedren lent his considerable talent to unearth these amazing primary sources. Any future work on the Sioux War will need to use this book as background material, which is both rich and deep.","PeriodicalId":12757,"journal":{"name":"Great Plains Quarterly","volume":"42 1","pages":"270 - 271"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43444170","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article argues that while the gathering of bones on the prairies represents the endpoint of the once great herds, the story of bone hunting also aligns with industrial and settler colonial histories. Bone hunting proved a well-organized capitalist enterprise that fits within a broader story of industrial expansion and worker exploitation in the American West. An examination of bone hunters also reveals Native Americans, both on and off reservations, to be the primary laborers in the Great Plains, demonstrating continuity not only in their reliance on bison but also in their long history of adaptation to the American market economy. Bison bone hunting also played an important role in furthering the cause of settler colonialism through white imaginings of the West. Settler colonist memories of the enterprise largely supplanted the contributions of Native American bone hunters with stories of white bone hunter experiences of privation, exploitation, and bootstrapping.","PeriodicalId":12757,"journal":{"name":"Great Plains Quarterly","volume":"42 1","pages":"173 - 189 - 191 - 209 - 211 - 236 - 237 - 263 - 265 - 266 - 266 - 266 - 267 - 268 - 268 - 268 - 269"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"66403150","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This federally managed site would later become the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge. Our historical review of the wildlife refuge indicates conflicts between administrative agencies and ranchers, primarily over reduction in livestock grazing and an increasing emphasis on wildlife conservation. Our review also finds that public participation in matters related to resource management was irrelevant during the formative years of the wildlife refuge. Participation became more visible during the development of several environmental impact statements, when the US Fish and Wildlife Service used the conventional participation approach of mailing information and inviting citizens to meetings. More recently, collaborative participation, where the planning process is influenced and driven by citizens and stakeholders, has gradually become more common and successful on federal lands. While we were unable to document effective collaborative efforts on the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge, we believe that the adoption of collaboration to enhance discussion and resolution of current challenges would prove mutually beneficial to citizens of northeastern Montana and natural resources on the refuge.","PeriodicalId":12757,"journal":{"name":"Great Plains Quarterly","volume":"41 1","pages":"124 - 95"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45530816","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
