Bone Necklace

De: Julia Sullivan

Narrado por: John Warren

In the summer of 1877, the bedraggled remains of the Nez Perce tribe took on the US Army and, despite being badly outnumbered and outgunned, emerged victorious.

Inspired by true events, Bone Necklace captures the intensity, violence, and unexpected conclusion of America’s final “Indian War”, told from the perspectives of a Nez Perce warrior, an Idaho militiaman, and an English painter who gets caught up in the violence. Combining heart-thumping action with an unforgettable cast, the novel centers on the relationship between two fighters, who are both enemies and allies in this war.

Bone Necklace is a tale of survival in which the Nez Perce not only overcome staggering odds but also win the grudging respect of a war-weary nation. While deeply rooted in American history, this remarkable story continues to resonate, illuminating modern debates around institutional racism, journalistic bias, and the call for courage in times of moral crisis.

A sad history that is now ours.

I’m greatly disappointed in our treatment of the true native Americans even until this day. No treaty was kept by us the European invaders of this country we now call our own. To this day we disparage other civilizations and their treatments of their people but we have no cover to hide our own shame in our treatment of our native peoples.

Excellent story

I loved the story and historic facts spread throughout this story. History should not be forgotten. We can learn a lot from the history.

A different point of view

Quite a compelling tale of the Indian Wars from multiple perspectives. There’s plenty of good and bad on each side but the inevitable expansion westwards by a better armed and better equipped US Army wore down the exhausted and demoralized Indian foe.
