Abstract Originally taken down in the field, in Winnebago, from the dictation of the Indian known as S.B., it relates S. B.'s life as he looked back upon it: with the emphases, interpretations, and values that he considered important. Dr. Radin, without altering the text, translated it into English and annotated it extensively to explain features of Winnebago culture and outlook that might not be obvious to the reader.
General note"The writer is referred to throughout the notes as S.B." Cf. Introd.
General note"Unabridged and unaltered republication of the work first published ... in the University of California publications in American archaeology and ethnology, volume 16, no. 7, April 15, 1920."
