Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee

An Indian History of the American West

New Paperback

Postscript summary

First published in 1970, this classic changed the way the history of the American West was perceived. Told from a Native American perspective, it chronicles the relentless ethnic cleansing of indigenous peoples to make way for white settlers, from the Long Walk of the Navajos – a forced march across New Mexico – in 1864, to the 1890 massacre of the Sioux at Wounded Knee in South Dakota.
