Brown leaves it to the reader to decide if the decisions were humane, well-intended, misguided, or cruel. The book begins on the east coast of the United States and with each successive chapter explores the seminal events, both political and military, that shaped the “Indian Policy” of our new country. How, in fact, was the west won? How does one define westward expansion–better yet, how does one define manifest destiny? Author Dee Brown provides one person s perspective on these questions in the seminal book Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee.Ī thoroughly researched, chronological history. Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee by Dee Alexander Brown (Vintage Books USA, 1987, 512 pages)
