Bury my heart at Wounded Knee : an Indian history of the American West

A carefully researched and documented account of the western expansion and systematic ravaging of Native Americans (Dakota, Nez Perce, Ute, Cheyenne, Ponca, Navajo, Apache, and other tribal nations) and their lands by the white man during the last half of the 19th century. This book presents the history of westward expansion from the perspective of Native Americans, who were its victums. Translated into numerous lanugages, the book has never been out of print since it was first published over forty years ago.
