Chief Sitting Bull killed...
A short correction, please. Setting Bull was not actually a chief. He was more of what we would call a "medicine man" or even a politician. He was an outstanding orator. He was capable of energizing…

Way out of this old soldier's pay.
Cherokee Kid,

The 'Trail of Tears' is know to almost all, but only a few know of 'The Long Walk,' so this good.
A good question. Speaking with my wife, she is of the opinion that it would be a good thing, honoring those that died in that terrible ordeal. However, she is not "traditional" so is speaking from a different perspective.
The only reason we could t…
I've been involved with NPS, Santa Fe, concerning the feasability study for 'The Long Walk'. The study is complete and is one of the best studies that I've witnessed coming from NPS. However, I was stunned when the majority of the Navajo Nation vote…
George, you are so right. Still...I feel like I'm committing a mortal sin or something. There's just no respect for books as books anymore. Damn. Speaking of books, I just read another Elmer Kelton. It was good, but not great, and I do know this man…
