Long Death The Last Days of The Plains Indians by Ralph K. Andrist contains an Intro by Dee Brown. Originally published in 1964, it was one of the first books to look eastward to the invasion of "civilization" and help the nation understand what had come before it. The book is an epic narrative of the Indians who once roamed and hunted the Great Plains. Expected names such as Red Cloud of the Sioux, Black Kettle of the Cheyennes, Generals Sherman, Sheridan, and Custer, Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse and Chief Joseph create the history. But also included are lesser known characters, unsung heroes of the west, such as ferryman Herbert Millier who dies at his post having saved most of the refugees fleeing the Minnesota Massacre and 11 yr old Merton Eastlick who carries his baby brother to safety through 50 miles of hostile territory. The story is how Native Americans found themselves over and over betrayed by the expansion from the East, fighting for lands on the edge of the frontier.
