Title: Life of Sitting Bull and history of the Indian War of 1890-91
Description: An historic account of the life and death of the great medicine man and chief Sitting Bull, this book tells not the story of a single leader, but of the entire Sioux Nation and also of the sanguinary Indian War of 1890-91.    Known as the greatest of all the Indians, the Sioux were the bravest in war, the wisest in peace, the most powerful in body, and the most advanced in mind.  By telling the story of their famous leader, Johnson also captures the essence of the entire tribe, including their manners, customs, ghost dances, and Messiah Craze. As possessors of the famed Red Pipe Stone Quarry, the Indian Mecca where Gitche Manito the Mighty revealed himself to man, the Sioux have cherished and developed, more than any others, the myths and legends of the Indian race.
