Regarded as an important spiritual text, Black Elk Speaks is the story of the Sioux people's military and spiritual endurance against invading white forces. Black Elk and other warriors recount personal memories of their victory at Little Bighorn and the tragedy at Wounded Knee. Readers will be impressed by the military prowess of the tribes under the leadership of Crazy Horse, and by their enduring faith in the unity and sacredness of life in a time of violent struggle. - Carla World History Books, Poetry Center, Black Elk, Oglala Lakota, Lakota Sioux, American Quotes, Native American Quotes, Biome, Indian History
