Books like Crazy Horse by William B. Matson


In Crazy Horse: The Lakota Warrior's Life & Legacy, the Edward Clown family, descendants of the Lakota war leader, presents the family tales and memories told to them about their famous grandfather. In many ways, the Clown family's oral history differs from what has become the standard and widely accepted biography of Crazy Horse. The family clarifies the inaccuracies and shares their story about the past, including what it means to them to be Lakota, the family genealogy, the life of Crazy Horse and his motivations, his death, and why they chose to keep quiet with their knowledge for so long before finally deciding to tell the truth as they know it.

A Place Within by 8842648|M. G. Vassanji book cover

πŸ“˜ A Place Within
 by M. G. Vassanji

From inside front cover: Part travelogue and description, part history and meditation, and above all a quest for a lost homeland, *A Place Within* begins with diary entries from Vassanji's very first wide-eyed trip to India in 1993, then moves on to accounts from his subsequent and obsessive revisits. An intimate chronicle filled with fantastic stories and unforgettable characters, [it] is rich with images of bustling city streets and contrasting Indian landscapes, from the southern tip of India to the Himalayan foothills, from the Bay of Bengal to the Arabian Sea. Here, too, are the amazing histories of Delhi, Shimla, Gujarat, and Kerala, and of Vassanji's own family, members of an ancient sect that draws on both Hunduism and Islam.
