Sitting Bull (c. 1831–1890) was one of the greatest Lakota/Sioux
warriors and chiefs who ever lived. From Sitting Bull’s
childhood—killing his first buffalo at age 10—to being named war
chief to leading his people against the U.S. Army, Sitting Bull:
Lakota Warrior and Defender of His People brings the story of the
great chief to light. Sitting Bull was instrumental in the war
against the invasive wasichus (white men) and was at the forefront of
the combat, including the Battles of Killdeer Mountain and the Little
Bighorn. He and Crazy Horse were the last Lakota/Sioux to surrender
their people to the U.S. government and resort to living on a
reservation.
The book includes an
extensive author’s note and timeline, historical photographs, a
map, a bibliography, endnotes, and an index.
