Brown, Dee, Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, Holt, Rinehart, and Winston, 1970.
When this fully documented account of the destruction of Indians in the American West first appeared in the early 1970s, it was met with both shock and shame by the general public. It begins with the "Long Walk" of the Navajos in 1860 and ends thirty years later with the massacre of Indian men, women, and children at Wounded Knee, South Dakota.
