Description: Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee by Dee Brown; 1970 HC/DJ 1st/2nd Acceptable The dust jacket is in poor condition (I have now added a Mylar cover to protect it from further damage). It has shelf wear, chipping, fading, tearing, missing pieces. Please see photos. The book's boards have some fading and light soiling. The binding is tight and secure with a slight right lean. The pages are bright and clean with only minimal light age yellowing. Overall the book is in acceptable to Good condition. About the Book: An Indian History of the American West the classic bestselling history The New York Times called "Original, remarkable, and finally heartbreaking...Impossible to put down."Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee is Dee Brown's eloquent, fully documented account of the systematic destruction of the American Indian during the second half of the nineteenth century. A national bestseller in hardcover for more than a year after its initial publication, it has sold almost four million copies and has been translated into seventeen languages. Using council records, autobiographies, and firsthand descriptions, Brown allows the great chiefs and warriors of the Dakota, Ute, Sioux, Cheyenne, and other tribes to tell us in their own words of the battles, massacres, and broken treaties that finally left them demoralized and defeated. A unique and disturbing narrative told with force and clarity, Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee changed forever our vision of how the West was really won.
