Edition DescriptionReprint
SynopsisCrazy Horse , the military leader of the Oglala Sioux whose personal power and social nonconformity set him off as "strange," fought in many famous battles, including the one at the Little Bighorn. He held out boldly against the government's efforts to confine the Sioux on reservations. Finally, in the spring of 1877 he surrendered, one of the last important chiefs to do so, only to meet a violent death. Mari Sandoz, the noted author of Cheyenne Autumn and Old Jules, both available as Bison Books, has captured the spirit of Crazy Horse with a strength and nobility befitting his heroism.

Superb Book
I have close to 10,000 books and papers in my personal library. 7,500 are related to militaria and knives (Advanced Knife Collector) and related subjects. You can never have to many Reference Auction Catalogs, Knife Related Books, Catalogs, etc. Knowledge truly is king and not computer knowledge. Read so you truly understand the history and people behind these subjects. Another Great Book.
