Yes, that is really a great book. I read it as a teenager and was bowled
over...
It was a book written in tandem about the Lakota...the author wrote the
basic story, then went to the Lakota and had it translated into their
language and then went back and translated that into English so that it
would be truly representative of their history. It is a great book. If you
are interested in the history of the Sioux nation, it is probably one of the
best.
Agreed... a must for anybody interested in American culture and history.
