Has anyone ever read Charles Eastman's books? I read that he has a connecton to the early BSA. We use alot of Native American imagery in Scouts and I was wondering what was his involvement with the Boy Scouts.

His article at Wikipedia is pretty good: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Eastman
There is this article that covers his work with Camp Fire: http://www.alicemariebeard.com/campfire/ohiyesa.htmComment
