From Booklist
Leonard Crow Dog speaks with a powerfully stark voice that echoes in the mind long after reading his words. As a medicine man of the Lakota, he is a living memory of his ancestors and a strong voice for preserving Lakota history and tradition. With Richard Erdoes, author of numerous Native American books, Leonard Crow Dog delves briefly into the generations of his family who have carried the name Crow Dog since the American government told them it would be their family name. Primarily, Erdoes has written Leonard's words as they were spoken for Leonard can neither read nor write, but the simple words are compelling. Leonard speaks of his tribe's history and traditions as they affect his life personally, and he conveys a sense of unseen presences, as though his ancestors speak in his ear refreshing his memories of events and rituals. He tells of his involvement as the spiritual leader of the American Indian Movement and the occupation of Wounded Knee in the early 1970s. This book complements Joe Starita's Dull Knife of Pine Ridge (1992). Each book offers a unique perspective of the events on Lakota reservations. While Leonard does not focus as strongly on Lakota history as Starita did, his book is still an admirable addition to any collection. Melanie Duncan

From Library Journal
Here is another addition to Erdoes's autobiographical collaborations with Native Americans that blend oral tradition with Western linear history (Crying for a Dream: The World Through Native American Eyes, LJ 2/1/90). Through the experiences of this family of great medicine men, readers are taken on an intimate journey through 120 years of Lakota history. Events that will already be familiar to some readers are recounted within a moving spiritual framework, replete with descriptions of the ceremonial rites and daily spiritual life characteristic of what the outside world deems Native American culture. We witness through "spiritual eyes" the beginnings of the controversial Native American Church, the Ghost Dance, the American Indian Movement, reservation life, and the "ethnic genocide" of the Indian boarding school system. Most libraries will want this volume to stand alongside Lakota Woman (LJ 2/15/90) and Gift of Power: The Life and Teachings of a Lakota Medicine Man (Bear & Co., 1992), similar titles by Erdoes.?Bruce Alan Hanson, Wayzata East J.H.S.

Format:Taschenbuch
With the abundant help of Richard Erdoes, Leonard Crowdog gives us the history of his people and their never-ending battle for freedom in a white world that was once theirs. I highly recomend this book for people interrested in reading about the injustices loaded onto the Native American people since the arrival of white men on their land.

History - past and present!
6. Februar 2001
Format:Taschenbuch
In the beginning paragraph it says, "We are still making history." as Crow Dog explains his family roots. That sentence sums up the book for me. It is history. The history that is learned and not lost by Crow Dog. The ceremonies and native ways that he is trying to maintain and to pass on are intricately described. I don't think I have read a book that is so visually written. I could picture the things he described. I savored this book for a few months, letting each chapter sink in. Although the book is written in a simple manner there is nothing simple about the information shared. A great read!

WHEN CROW DOG DESCRIBE HIS JAIL TIME IT IS SO REALISTIC AND SENSITIVE YOU FEEL YOU ARE THERE INSIDE HIM AND THE WALLS, BUT WHEN YOU SHARE HIS FINAL FEAR: YOU ARE BREATHLESS ABOUT TO CHOKE!
ALL THIS HAD TO END UP IN A SUN DANCE.
A WONDERFUL BOOK WHICH SHOULD BE INTO EVERY LIBRARY, BOOKSTORES AND MOST DEFINETELY ON YOUR BOOK SHELVES.
