Devon Mihesuah explores its curriculum, faculty, administration, and educational philosophy. "[An] important work. . . .

Conley, author of Mountain Windsong "Of the many books about Cherokee history, few deal with the issue of acculturation in the post-removal period and none so effectively as Devon Mihesuah's Cultivating the Rosebuds." -- Nancy Shoemaker, Western Historical Quarterly "Required reading for anyone remotely interested in the history of Native American education." -- David W. Adams, History of Education Quarterly
