First in a series of groundbreaking fiction about the American West from the Native American perspective, this riveting novel takes place during the Battle of the Hundred in the Hand, otherwise known as the Fetterman Massacre of 1866. The story is told through the eyes of Cloud, a dedicated warrior who fights alongside a young Crazy Horse, as well as the white soldiers who mistake Cloud's reheaded wife for a captive. Beautifully written and reminiscent of the oral tradition, "Hundred in the Hand" brings new depth to the story of the battle and the Lakota people.
