Trade Review
"This is a living, heartbreaking account of four generations of a Lakota Sioux family. . . . A truly fine book rich in historical and personal detail of a family and a people."—The Boston Globe
"No superfluous sentimentality impedes this saga; it moves across the pages with an immediacy that belies its century-plus timespan. . . . The Dull Knifes of Pine Ridge is a story of raw endurance and of a passion for the honorable freedom of mind, heart, and body."—The Miami Herald
"A fine story of cultural survival and a history that should find a place alongside those of a Crazy Horse or a Sitting Bull-integral parts of the American experience."—Booklist
"You get to know four generations of Dull Knifes as intimately as the characters of a good novel. . . . [Starita] has written a compassionate book, but an angry book."—The Seattle Times & Post-Intelligencer
"Highly readable and highly recommended."—Glenn M. Busset, The Manhattan Mercury
