The Dark Horse Speaks

Little White Bird lived on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation with the Oglala Lakota. She was arranged to marry a Lakota Chief who traveled two thousand miles to claim her as his wife. They lived together in the poorest county in the United States, yet it is an area rich in history and conflict: the Pine Ridge Indian reservation in the village of Wounded Knee, South Dakota.

This is Little White Bird's real-life memoir of Truth. What starts off as a cross-country travel story ends up being a complete lifestyle change. The book provides an honest look into the Lakota way of life that only insiders are allowed to see. It is a recent, in depth study of life, love, and loss through bitter-sweet examinations of culture conflicts, women's studies, and American Indian history both present and past.

This memoir encapsulates the heart of a person who wears her soul on her sleeve and puts it on paper for all to share in this unique, remarkable journey.
