The author undertakes a study of the Ghost Dance and the alleged links it had with Mormonism. He concludes that such allegations were false and that such connections were made by army officers and Indian agents and were the result of prejudice and suspicion rather than fact. The Ghost Dance movement originated in areas outside of Mormon influence and was practiced by those who sought a return to old nomadic-hunting days and not white civilization ways of Mormonism.
