Sitting Bull by Bill Yenne
Sitting Bull's name is still the best known of any American Indian leader, but his life and legacy have been shrouded with misinformation and half-truths. Tracing Sitting Bull's history from a headstrong youth and his first contact with encroaching settlers, through his ascension as the spiritual and military leader of the Lakota, friendshipwith a Swiss-American widow from New York, and death at the hands of the Indian police on the eve of the massacre at Wounded Knee, Bill Yenne, in Sitting Bull, finds a man who, in the face of an uncertain future, helped ensure the survival of his people.
