Více o knize

Set in the 1870s, this narrative chronicles the Cheyenne Indians' desperate quest to return home from Oklahoma to Wyoming and Montana. Led by Little Wolf, around 300 Cheyenne face overwhelming odds against General Crook's 10,000 troops, with only 60 achieving freedom. The author conducted extensive research in the late 1930s, engaging with Cheyenne experts to authentically portray their struggle. This work marked the beginning of the author's popular acclaim and inspired the classic film Cheyenne Autumn.
