"The oral narratives, which Walker recorded during his tenure as government physician on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota between 1896 and 1914, resemble "speculative fragments," which are occasionally at variance with each other, rather than a connected, authoritative text sanctioned by a consensus of the native speakers (Jahner 1984, 46)."
