Reviews
"Bettelyoun's stories raise important questions about other cultures and particularly oral cultures: whose voice is heard, whose truth counts, and what is true and false about the history of the American West. . . . Bettelyoun's stories allow readers to hear the voice of a person moving back and forth between several cultures and truths. An important addition to history."-Choice
"An unmatched perspective on the struggle of the Lakota against the white tide of Manifest Destiny."-News from Indian Country
"This book is quite unusual in being a firsthand account of 19th-century Sioux life by a woman. It is also a very readable and fascinating account of a key period in Plains Indian life."-Library Journal
