A Doctor among the Oglala Sioux Tribe: The Letters of Robert H. Ruby, 1953-1954

In 1953 surgeon Robert H. Ruby began work as the chief medical officer at the hospital on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. He began writing almost daily to his sister, describing the Oglala Lakota people he served, his Bureau of Indian Affairs colleagues, and day-to-day life. These engaging letters provide a compelling memoir of life at Pine Ridge in the mid-1950s.
