Writing from Red Cloud's point of view, Nelson recounts historical events and includes powerful quotes, documents, and photographs. The book's vibrant art is inspired by historical Plains ledger art; the sketches, colored-pencil and bright watercolor washes, stand out against the ledger lines. Timeline. Bib., ind.

(4) 4-6 Native American Chiefs and Warriors series. These brief biographies of seven legendary Native American leaders strive for historical accuracy but suffer from flat prose and unfortunate choices of cover illustrations. Reluctant readers may be attracted by the short, simply written chapters, which are profusely illustrated with black-and-white photographs and reproductions. The books have all been previously published under different titles and a different series name. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
