Re: Laura Ingalls and Whipping (spin off)
I can't remember where it was said but ma does feel "the only good Indian was a dead Indian." In don't think pa agreed. I think he knew why there were troubles and did his best to be diplomatic. I remember when he had a pipe with one and they were just quiet, but it was pleasant.

Anyway, here is the Amazon listing for the book. I would suggest the library, though, as this book is a HUGE hardcover. About 90% of it is notes and annotations from the research that was done separately from the manuscript. I would strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to learn more about Laura's *real* background. Apparently even most of the true stories were edited/fictionalized/moved around in time for better dramatic effect.

Re: Laura Ingalls and Whipping (spin off)
I wonder if she's making a distinction between being whipped with an object and a spanking. She had to have been spanked more than just once because she wouldn't have known she "deserved a spanking" for throwing a fit about sitting quietly on Sunday if spanking wasn't a normal thing for her. But it could be that the time when she hit her sister was the only time she was whipped.
