    Dee Brown native-american-history-books Editorial Review

    The book "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee" by Dee Brown is a powerful and essential read that chronicles the tragic displacement of Native Americans from the West, from around 1860 to the Wounded Knee massacre in 1890. The book is written from a sympathetic perspective, highlighting the injustices and atrocities perpetrated against the native peoples by European settlers and the American government. It portrays the swift decline of the tribes from nomadic freedom to utter subjugation, capturing heroic episodes such as Red Cloud's War, Little Bighorn, Chief Joseph's rebellion, and Geronimo's resistance. The writing is plainspoken and factual, eschewing embellishment, which adds to the force of its impact. However, some readers note its lack of scholarly and literary depth, as it focuses more on the events rather than delving into the "why" behind them. Overall, the book is highly recommended for its evocative portrayal of history and its importance as mandatory reading in educational curriculums. **

    Pros

    • Evocative and essential portrayal of Native American displacement
    • Sympathetic perspective on injustices and atrocities
    • Captures heroic episodes with short-lived success

    Cons

    • Lack of scholarly and literary depth
    • Factual and plainspoken writing style, may not suit all readers
