This pamphlet is an outline of the life of Jesus Christ in Dakota. This is the second edition of this text. It includes a preface in English and nine hand-drawn maps relating to the life of Jesus Christ. The Santee Normal Training School instructed Dakota children in the Dakota language. These children came from families who were removed from Minnesota to Nebraska after the U.S.-Dakota War in 1863. Reverend A.L. Riggs founded the school in 1870 as an academy to train Native teachers. The school developed a printing press in 1871 and produced many materials in the Dakota language.
