Filled with black and white photographs and illustrated maps, this adaptation of "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, recreates the events leading to the Massacre of Wounded Knee in 1890. As a reviewer, this is one of the most difficult books I have ever tried to describe. The tragedy, the prejudice, the heartbreak: there are no words to describe the injustices suffered by the Sioux. Thoroughly researched, this book is a must read for all Americans as we seek to understand the heritage of our nation. Includes timeline, glossary, a Sioux calendar, recommended reading and websites. 208 pgs, pb. ~ Deanne
