Resumen del Editor
A broad range of perspectives from natives and nonnatives makes this book the most complete account and analysis of the Lakota ghost dance ever published. A revitalization movement that swept across native communities of the West in the late 1880s, the ghost dance took firm hold among the Lakotas, perplexed and alarmed government agents, sparked the intervention of the US Army and culminated in the massacre of hundreds of Lakota men, women, and children at Wounded Knee in December 1890.
Although the Lakota ghost dance has been the subject of much previous historical study, the views of Lakota participants have not been fully explored, in part because they have been available only in the Lakota language. Moreover, emphasis has been placed on the event as a shared historical incident, rather than as a dynamic meeting ground of multiple groups with differing perspectives. In The Lakota Ghost Dance of 1890, Rani-Henrik Andersson uses, for the first time, some accounts translated from Lakota.
This book presents the Indian accounts, together with the views and observations of Indian agents, the US Army, missionaries, the mainstream press, and the Congress. This comprehensive, complex, and compelling study not only collects these diverse viewpoints but also explores and analyzes the political, cultural, and economic linkages among them.
The book is published by University of Nebraska Press. The audiobook is published by University Press Audiobooks.
Praise for the book:
"This is a landmark book on the Lakota ghost dance and Wounded Knee." (Choice)
"Will become a primary reference text on the subject, accessible to scholars and popular readers alike." (Great Plains Quarterly)
"Highly recommended for all those wishing to learn more about this exceedingly important chapter in Native American–white relations." (Journal of American History)

Historia
The received idea of Native American history - as promulgated by books like Dee Brown's mega-bestselling 1970 Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee - has been that American Indian history essentially ended with the 1890 massacre at Wounded Knee. Not only did 150 Sioux die at the hands of the US Cavalry, the sense was, but Native civilization did as well. Growing up Ojibwe on a reservation in Minnesota, training as an anthropologist, and researching Native life past and present for his nonfiction and novels, David Treuer has uncovered a different narrative.

The Wounded Knee Massacre is often glossed over in textbooks, talking about the event in a generalized manner. But such a generalized representation undermines the real impact and significance of the events that happened on that fateful day, making it one of the most tragic events in Native American history. In this audiobook, we aim to provide the listener with a more in-depth look at the factors and major players in the Wounded Knee Massacre, as well as the significance of its aftermath.

Black Elk was the only qualified priest of the older Oglala Sioux still living when The Sacred Pipe was written.

Upon his return, he was swept up in the traditionalist Ghost Dance movement and shaken by the massacre at Wounded Knee. But Black Elk was not a warrior, and instead chose the path of a healer and holy man, motivated by a powerful prophetic vision that haunted and inspired him.

Traditionally, Americans learned in school that the ancestors of the people who inhabited the Western Hemisphere at the time of Columbus' landing had crossed the Bering Strait 12,000 years ago; existed mainly in small nomadic bands; and lived so lightly on the land that the Americas were, for all practical purposes, still a vast wilderness. But as Charles C. Mann now makes clear, archaeologists and anthropologists have spent the last 30 years proving these and many other long-held assumptions wrong.

The great Oglala Sioux chief Red Cloud was the only Plains Indian to defeat the United States Army in a war, forcing the American government to sue for peace in a conflict named for him. At the peak of their chief’s powers, the Sioux could claim control of one-fifth of the contiguous United States. But unlike Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, or Geronimo, the fog of history has left Red Cloud strangely obscured. Now, thanks to painstaking research by two award-winning authors, his incredible story can finally be told.

The Middle East has long been a region of rival religions, ideologies, nationalisms, and ambitions. All of these conflicts are rooted in the region's political inheritance: the arrangements, unities, and divisions imposed by the Allies after the First World War. Author David Fromkin reveals how and why the Allies drew lines on an empty map that remade the geography and politics of the Middle East. Focusing on the formative years of 1914 to 1922, when all seemed possible, he delivers in this sweeping and magisterial book the definitive account of this defining time.

In March 1621, when Plymouth’s survival was hanging in the balance, the Wampanoag sachem (or chief), Ousamequin (Massasoit), and Plymouth’s governor, John Carver, declared their people’s friendship for each other and a commitment to mutual defense. Later that autumn, the English gathered their first successful harvest and lifted the specter of starvation. Ousamequin and 90 of his men then visited Plymouth for the 'First Thanksgiving'. The treaty remained operative until King Philip’s War in 1675, when 50 years of uneasy peace between the two parties would come to an end.

In the past century, the attack, which came to be known as the Camp Grant Massacre, has largely faded from memory. Now, drawing on oral histories, contemporary newspaper reports, and the participants' own accounts, prizewinning author Karl Jacoby brings this perplexing incident and tumultuous era to life to paint a sweeping panorama of the American Southwest.

Historia
William Tecumseh Sherman and Geronimo were keen strategists and bold soldiers, ruthless with their enemies. Over the course of the 1870s and 1880s these two war chiefs would confront each other in the final battle for what the American West would be: a sparsely settled, wild home where Indian tribes could thrive, or a densely populated extension of the America to the east of the Mississippi.

Historia
Sitting Bull’s name is still the best known of any American Indian leader, but his life and legacy remain shrouded with misinformation and half-truths. Sitting Bull’s life spanned the entire clash of cultures and ultimate destruction of the Plains Indian way of life. The reality of his life, as Bill Yenne reveals in his absorbing new portrait, Sitting Bull, is far more intricate and compelling. In Sitting Bull we find a man who, in the face of an uncertain future, helped ensure the survival of his people.

Historia
In the Fall of 1857, 120 California-bound emigrants were killed in lonely Mountain Meadows in southern Utah; only 18 young children were spared. The men on the ground after the bloody deed took an oath that they would never mention the event again, either in public or in private. The leaders of the Mormon church also counseled silence. The first report, soon after the massacre, described it as an Indian onslaught at which a few white men were present, only one of whom, John D. Lee, was actually named.

Historia
The "Five Civilized Tribes" are among the best known Native American groups in American history, and they were even celebrated by contemporary Americans for their abilities to adapt to white culture. But tragically, they are also well known tribes due to the trials and tribulations they suffered by being forcibly moved west along the "Trail of Tears".

Historia
In 1791, General Arthur St. Clair led the United States Army in a campaign to destroy a complex of Indian villages at the Miami River in northwestern Ohio. Almost within reach of their objective, St. Clair's 1,400 men were attacked by about 1,000 Indians. The U.S. force was decimated, suffering nearly a thousand casualties in killed and wounded, while Indian casualties numbered only a few dozen. As renowned Native American historian Colin Calloway demonstrates here, St. Clair's Defeat - as it came to be known - was hugely important for its time.

Historia
In sobering detail, The Korean War chronicles a US home front agitated by Joseph McCarthy, where absolutist conformity discouraged open inquiry and citizen dissent. Cumings incisively ties our current foreign policy back to Korea: an America with hundreds of permanent military bases abroad, a large standing army, and a permanent national security state at home, the ultimate result of a judicious and limited policy of containment evolving into an ongoing and seemingly endless global crusade.

Two 20th century tyrants stand apart from all the rest in terms of their ruthlessness and the degree to which they changed the world around them. Briefly allies during World War II, Adolph Hitler and Josef Stalin then tried to exterminate each other in sweeping campaigns unlike anything the modern world had ever seen, affecting soldiers and civilians alike. Millions of miles of Eastern Europe were ruined in their fight to the death, millions of lives sacrificed.

For decades, a major piece of World War II history has gone virtually unwritten. The war began in China two full years before Hitler invaded Poland, and China eventually became the fourth great ally, partner to the United States, the Soviet Union, and Great Britain. Yet its drama of invasion, resistance, slaughter, and political intrigue remains little known in the West.

Setting the record straight
A powerful indictment of white christian hypocrisy in America. The Lakota Ghost Dance was a ceremony, spiritual, religious, not at all belligerent. It was an expression of solidarity for a maligned and unjustly treated people. At best, the response of the US government, religious organizations and press was ignorant, merely facilitating bias and slandering a people. At worst, it was woefully hypocritical and complicit in genocide. The most damning elements in the book involve the wildly contradictory accounts by all three of the aforementioned institutions. There was never, and has never been, any evidence that the Lakota Ghost Dance was anything other than a spiritual ceremony. In a perfect world, that would require tolerance of a nation that claims to respect religious freedom. But it couldn't be that simple. More cynically, and viciously, the state and churches, aided by the press, twisted and maligned this expression borne of the sorrow of centuries of exploitation by Europeans, into a de facto declaration of war. Forget freedom of speech, freedom of expression, freedom of religion. They were deprived of the freedom to live.
For the government, in one moment, the Lakota are a meager band hardly worth the attention, disgruntled over reduced provisions (promised as compensation for land in dubiously created treaties). Therefore, unworthy of consideration, an afterthought in the halls of power. The names Red Cloud and Sitting Bull hardly recognizable to eastern politicians. And in the next moment, they are a tremendous force of savage heathens prepared to kill all white people. What's to be believed? If the whole episode weren't so tragic, the hypocrisy would be laughable. It's worth noting that the Lakota idea of a world to come (heaven, if you will), free from white people and the misery they brought, would seem to preclude the need for armed revolt. But logical thought has never really been a priority for government policy.
As for religion, one needn't look too far to see the inherent hypocrisy in decrying the evils of the Ghost Dance, while engaging their own sky-grifting. It's seen in how the Lakota were viewed as primitive, savage and superstitious, yet the Christian word with its rituals, whether Catholic or Protestant, was the revealed truth of the almighty. Funny how that works.
The press of the time comes off slightly better. Most accounts are chock full of fabricated native depredations and more cynically, fear and war-mongering rhetoric. We needn't wait for the coming of the Hollywood western, the character of native people was already well on its way to being assassinated, at least in the minds of white Americans. Only the incidents of honest reporting, and the rescinding of unfounded and racist claims as reporters grew consciences gives the press any relief from scorn.
Well worth the time. It comes off a bit academic at times, acknowledged by the author. But nevertheless a valuable episode in the complex history of the Lakota and America.
