The Sun Dancer

Mac Nicolson

4.9/5 (17131 ratings)

Description:Taking an actual historical event--the 1971 occupation of Mount Rushmore by 20 members of the American Indian Movement (AIM)--and moving it to the present day, David London has created a bleak and mystical first novel. The AIM members were protesting the U.S. Government's violations of the 1868 Laramie Treaty, which granted the Black Hills of South Dakota to the Sioux, but their brave, foolhardy protest was quickly suppressed by the federal government. In the novel, the incident has a bloodier denouement. London is a skillful blender of history and invention, and the leaders of the Sioux protesters are extremely well-drawn. He also understands that the AIM leaders are motivated less by the belief that they can right historical wrongs than by a complex mix of personal bitterness, ethnic pride, and long-simmering desires for revenge.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
