DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Life of Sitting Bull: And History of the Indian War of 1890-'91 The name of Sitting Bull must be as famous as that of Tecumseh, of Red Cloud, as that of Black Hawk or Massasoit. The Sioux massacres of 1862, make Wyom ing seem commonplace, and the last rally of Custer at the Little Big Horn fight has no parallel in all the annals of our Indian wars. Nor is the long drama drawn to an unworthy Close by the weird Ghost Dances, the death of Sitting Bull and the mad slaughtering at Wounded Knee.
