Description: Dustjacket some fading, small tears; Pages are clean; binding is tight. From the inside flap: "Why Crazy Horse?" the author asks, "What business has he to be immortalized in stone on a mountain top? Virginia Fielder answers her own question by pointing out that he was a war strategist who led the Indians to seemingly impossible victories, he was martyred in betrayal by his own people and killed by them in unexpected drama. Mrs. Fielder creates a series of thoughtful profiles on leaders of distinction, choosing eight men who made major contributions to Sioux culture. Tracing their lives and careers, she shows how the Sioux, decade by decade, have progressed to modern civilization. Featured are Crazy Horse, warrior; Spotted Tale, strategist; Sitting Bull, Hunkpapa medicine man; Gall, Reno's opponent; Martin Charger and the Shetak captives; Red Cloud, the schemer; Chauncey Yellow Robe, bridging two cultures; and Ben Reifel, U.S. Congressman and Sioux.
