Book of
the week!
Bury My Heart
at Wounded Knee
by Dee Brown
An enormously controversial
book since its publication in
1971, Bury My Heart
at Wounded Knee
by Dee Brown is
recognised as one of
the most sweeping,
comprehensive books
that tells the story
of the systematic
destruction of
American Indians in
the latter half of the
nineteenth century. Brown’s
book is one of those unique
publications that changes
the way people perceive the
subject forever. Brown uses
a range of sources to tell the
story of the great chiefs and
warriors of the Dakota, Ute,
Sioux Cheyenne and
many other tribes.
Their accounts tell of
the battles, massacres,
and broken treaties
that left the American
Indian tribes defeated,
demoralised and
decimated. Bury My
Heart at Wounded Knee
will forever change
your perception of how the
West was won by the United
States at the expense of the
indigenous peoples that had
lived there for centuries.
