I decided now is the perfect time to learn about the true history of the American West. The accounts of how unfair, cruel, and vicious the white men treated the American Indians was nothing but tragic. Time after time, the American Indians were kind, and willing to work with the white men. They are such a generous tribe who wanted to live simply in peace and connection with all cultures.

Suet624 I read this as a teenager when it first came out. Broke my heart. 5mo
NatalieR @Librarybelle I hope you get out of it what you‘re hoping to find. 💟 5mo
NatalieR @Suet624 Yes, a very heavy, heartbreaking read. 💔 5mo

This is the tale of Herman Lehmann, a captive of the Apaches on the Southern Plains of Texas and New Mexico during the 1870s. Adopted by a war chief, he was trained to be a warrior and waged merciless war on Apache enemies, both Indian and Euro-American. Later, he joined the Comanches. Tons of brutality descriptions, and the women did not fare well - a tough read.

Amazing book that tells the horrors suffered by the Native Americans at the hands of the white man.

It's shocking how these indigenous people were trusted, and reading this book was not easy at times, but I think everyone should read it.

Readergrrl If you found this book as important as I did, you may also find the book I tagged below an excellent accompaniment. 11mo

TheNeverendingTBR @Readergrrl Thanks for the recommendations, Cynthia. They sound interesting, and I'll definitely look into them. 🙂 11mo
Suet624 Heartbreaking book but it was so important when it came out in the ‘70‘s. There weren‘t many books that talked about this subject matter. 11mo
AllDebooks @Readergrrl I started reading this and had to pause due to distressing content. It's a tough but necessary read. I've just heard it's being filmed. 11mo

This was a solid book…another historical fiction title by Jiles, this one based on true events and characters. The only thing lacking for me,was that I was hoping for more of a balance between the opinions and viewpoints of the expansionist settlers and the Native Americans. 4/5

This is a unique viewpoint on Ojibwe culture. An older wolf "Uncle" spends time in the evenings with the pups of the pack storytelling. He passes on the history of the Ojibwe and their relationship with the wolves. I found much to contemplate in this short book. #20in4 readathon @Andrew65 #Booked2023 #TitleStartsWithVorW @alisiakae @Cinfhen @BarbaraTheBibliophage

Last weeks reading roundup

The best book I read last week was Bury My Heart At Wounded Knee. This should be taught in US schools.
Careless was a hidden gem that I loved.

The other two were meh. The Flagg one being super racist, would not recommend.
