ESSIE'S STORY THE LIFE AND LEGACY OF A SHOSHONE TEACHER
By Esther Burnett Horne and Sally McBeth.
This is the spirited story of Esther Burnett Horne, an accomplished and inspiring educator in Indian boarding schools.

Born in 1909, Horne grew up attending Haskell Indian Institute in Lawrence, Kansas, and often visited relatives on the Shoshone Wind River Reservation in Wyoming.

She began teaching at 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.
