Excerpt of book review: [Patricia] Calvert tells Sitting Bull's story and that of James McLaughlin, a man involved with the Indians for more than half a century. The men Calvert portrays are more often than not honorable men, generous, often even magnanimous, who struggle for what they believe to be the right way of dealing with each other, believe to be the right lifestyle for the Indians whose nomadic lives were increasingly coming into conflict with white settlers bent on farming and ranching the land the Sioux had roamed for generations and believed theirs rightfully to roam forever.
