I LOVE this book, i read it years ago and it is still fresh in my mind. A great book that captures a tumultuous time. Very thought provoking and memorable. While reading i was able to feel the emotions of the players involved and get a real idea of what they were experiencing. This book is a need to read for anyone who wants to learn more about the era of the 60s, or the weathermen. This book captures both innocence and violence and shows the transition between the two.

I probably should rate this higher, but I just couldn't quite get interested. Which is odd, because I really do enjoy Native American history--I have ever since I was a little girl--but somehow I never clicked with this book. It's well-written, though, and impressively researched.

A detailed recounting of crazy horse's life and the events leading up to his death. Did a much more comprehensive job explaining the battle of Little Bighorn to a layman than Philbrick. My only complaint is that sometimes the timeline jumped around and it could be hard to keep track of what was going on when, but this only happened occasionally.
