Seller's Description:
Book Octavo, Hardcover. : Good in good Dust Jacket Book Club Edition. 433 pages. Map on endpapers showing the path Indians took to west; The characters and events of Dee Brown's unforgettable novel are part of American's past: Tecumseh, Andrew Jackson, Teddy Roosevelt, the great chiefs Red Cloud, Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, the broken treaties and endless lies, but it's Brown's storytelling and fictional characters such as Creek Mary and her 'blood', that elevate this to the level of an American epic. A beautifully wrought and ultimately tragic saga about four generations of American Indian life, and is set partially against the background of the Revolutionary War period. Brown traces the life of one family, which over the story decades forged roots in the Creek, Cherokee and Sioux nations.
