Description

Book Synopsis
The tragedy at Wounded Knee has often been written about, but the existing photographs have received little attention until now. Eyewitness at Wounded Knee brings together and assesses for the first time some 150 photographs that were made before and immediately after the massacre. Accompanying commentaries focus on both the Indian and the military sides of the story.

Trade Review
"Although the subject is somber, the vivid photos and well-written text present a full and useful history."—Omaha World-Herald
