"Sitting Bull and His World" by Albert Marrin explores the life and legacy of the famous Lakota leader and shaman, Sitting Bull. The book delves into the complexities of Sitting Bull’s character, his leadership during the resistance against American expansion, and his role in key events such as the Battle of the Little Bighorn. Through vivid storytelling and historical context, Marrin highlights the cultural richness of the Lakota people, and the challenges they faced. The narrative not only honors Sitting Bull’s fight for his people's rights but also reflects on the broader issues of Native American history and identity.
