Description

Seeking to complete the compelling story of the American West, best-selling Lakota author Joseph Marshall brings a new slant to the traditional Western: historical fiction written from the Native American viewpoint.

This riveting novel takes place during the Battle of the Hundred in the Hand, otherwise known as the Fetterman Massacre of 1866. The story is told through the eyes of Cloud, a dedicated warrior who fights alongside a young Crazy Horse, as well as the white soldiers who mistake Cloud’s redheaded wife for a captive. Beautifully written and reminiscent of the oral tradition, Hundred in the Hand brings new depth to the story of the battle and the Lakota people.

Reviews

Library Journal...
“[A] fine historical novel in a class with Larry McMurtry’s tales of life on the Western frontier. Highly recommended…”
