Sobre este artículo
A history of Native Americans and the American West that struck a chord with readers as the American Indian Movement was surging at the time of publication. It became a bestseller and has never been out of print since. Rare as a first printing (later printings are quite common, though), and especially so signed.
Sinopsis
Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee by American writer Dee Brown is a history of Native Americans in the American West in the late nineteenth century, and their displacement and slaughter by the United States federal government. It was first published in 1970. The title is taken from the final phrase of a 20th-century poem titled "American Names" by Stephen Vincent Benet, although the poem was not actually about the Indian Wars.
