Authored by John G. Neihardt, this book captures Black Elk's stories about the culture, traditions, and history of his people. It also recounts the broken treaties with the U. S.

This attractive book is an excellent addition to any collection, with its special attributes of being illustrated by Standing Bear and being regarded by many as one of the great spiritual classics of the Twentieth Century.
