Synopsis of Biography: Crazy Horse

This Biography presents the story of Crazy Horse, the revered warrior and Chief of the Oglala Sioux. He stands as a symbol of the fight for freedom. He never bowed to the incursions of the white man on Indian land, continuing to roam free, as his people always had. Crazy Horse went to war when the United States government broke the Treaty of 1868, which guaranteed the continued autonomy of Indian lands in the Black Hills. Chief Crazy Horse and Chief Sitting Bull fought at the Battle of the Little Bighorn, in which General George Custer and his men were defeated. Crazy Horse was later caught in a trap and killed at Fort Robinson, NE, in 1877. Archival news accounts, diaries, and expert commentary recount the courage and tenacity of the man who said, "It is a good day to fight; it is a good day to die." ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, Rovi
