Summary "Goodbird the Indian: His Story" by Edward Goodbird and Gilbert Livingstone Wilson is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the life of Edward Goodbird, a member of the Hidatsa tribe, and his experiences growing up in a time of significant change for Native American cultures. It focuses on his personal journey, cultural beliefs, and the transition from traditional life to more modern influences, including farming and Christianity. The opening of the account details Goodbird's birth near the mouth of the Yellowstone River, highlighting the Hidatsa and Mandan tribes' lives, their customs, and beliefs. It sets the stage for Goodbird’s upbringing, describing the important aspects of tribal life, including the roles of family members and the culturally significant practices surrounding his childhood.
