George E. Hyde
George E. Hyde (1882–1968) was the "Dean of American Indian Historians." He wrote many books about Indian tribes, especially the Sioux and Pawnee plus a life of the Cheyenne warrior and historian, George Bent.
==Life==
Hyde was born in Omaha, Nebraska and lived there all his life. He was educated only to the eighth grade. His interest in American Indians was excited by a visit to an Indian encampment at the Trans-Mississippi Exposition in Omaha in 1898. At eighteen he became totally deaf and nearly blind as a result of rheumatic fever. This did not deter him from his Indian studies although he also owned a bookstore to help support himself. He was a reclusive man of modest means. In his later years, he had to read using a powerful magnifying glass.〔Official Nebraska Government Website. "George E. Hyde, 1882-1968." http://www.nebraskahistory.org/lib-arch/research/manuscripts/family/hyde-george.htm, accessed 10 May 2011〕 Hyde communicated with the world almost entirely through his letters and books.
Hyde began a correspondence with George Bent in 1904 and, at Bent’s recommendation, became a salaried researcher for George Bird Grinnell about 1908. Hyde, with extensive contributions from Bent, claimed to be the ghost writer for Grinnell’s classic book ''The Fighting Cheyennes''. Grinnell and Hyde are both distinguished for emphasizing the importance of Indians in the history of the Western frontier.〔Faller, Lincoln B. “Making Medicine against ‘White Man’s Side of Story," ''American Indian Quarterly'', Winter 2000, Vol 24, Issue 1, Academic Search Premier, p.5, 18〕
