Told entirely from the perspective of the indigenous nations — the Sioux, the Cheyenne, the Apache, the Navajo, and many others — the narrative reconstructs three decades of broken treaties, forced relocations, and brutal massacres that culminated in the infamous 1890 massacre at Wounded Knee, South Dakota. Drawing on council records, firsthand accounts, and treaty negotiations, Brown presents the voices of great leaders such as Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, Geronimo, and Chief Joseph with unflinching clarity and profound empathy.\n\nFirst published in 1970, this landmark work irrevocably shifted the moral lens through which American westward expansion is understood, dismantling the romanticised myth of the frontier and replacing it with a documented, devastating truth. Brown's prose is measured yet deeply affecting, allowing the weight of historical evidence to speak with a power that no polemic could match. A cornerstone of Native American historiography, it remains as urgent and essential today as when it first shook the conscience of a nation — leaving readers to reckon with the question of what it truly means to call this land home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49342779621595,"sku":"9781529941500-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/d59e184a-5e88-4b5e-9f6e-e200a0dc2248.png?v=1790049364","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9781529941500-secondhand-bury-my-heart-at-wounded-knee-an-indian-history-of-the-american-west","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
