Fascinating life story blending his life with the story of his people during the late 1800s up to the horrible slaughter at Wounded Knee.

Review of 'Los últimos Sioux' on 'GoodReads'

4 stars

I hesitated before giving my rating, because I don't want people to get the wrong idea. You have to commit to this book for it to touch you, I think, and that can be hard to do. If I could, I might give it four and a half stars.
