This biography of the Lakota leader who united the Sioux against the U.S. Army was published the year after his death at Standing Rock. It has green cloth boards with pictures debossed on the front cover and spine, decorated endpapers, and maps and illustrations throughout the text. The covers are discolored and the text, which appears to have been resewn, has nearly come apart from the covers. The binding is visible along the hinges and some of the pages have come loose.
