One of the best stories of a repressed people standing up against aggressorsBy Ice cream samarai salamiOne of the best stories of a repressed people standing up against aggressors. It speaks a lot of those who have not come out on the winning side of history; but not as some sad story of people who did not make a stand.Also; it gives a very clear glimpse into the life; traditions; and forms of war between indian tribes; along with how they took the battle to the whites. If you really want to live taste of the experience of their history; without the campy cartoon image propped up about native americans; then this is the book for you.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. A knowledge of Crazy Horse is vital to our understanding ...By Barbara B. SnyderA knowledge of Crazy Horse is vital to our understanding of the American West and how the European immigrants shafted the indigenous peoples. This is especially important to those who visit the memorial to Crazy Horse which eclipses Mt Rushmore. All four heads of Mt Rushmore would fit within the head of the statue of Crazy Horse. It was wise for the various tribes to unite in honoring Crazy Horse for this incredible statue that should be seen by all Americans; even though it will not be finished in our lifetimes.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
