These women, "recruited" by force in the penitentiaries and asylums of the country, gradually integrate the way of life of the Cheyenne, at the time when the great massacres of the tribes begin. After the battle of Little Big Horn, some female survivors decide to take up arms against the United States, which has stolen from the Native Americans their lands, their way of life, their culture and their history. This ghost tribe of rebellious women will soon go underground to wage an implacable battle, which will continue from generation to generation. In this final volume of the One Thousand White Women trilogy, Jim Fergus mixes with rare mastery the struggle of women and Native Americans in the face of oppression, from the end of the 19th century until today. With a vivid sense of the 19th century American West, Fergus paints portraits of women as strong as they are unforgettable"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 $a Little Bighorn, Battle of the, Mont., 1876 $x Fiction 650 $a Women, White $x Fiction 650 $a Cheyenne Indians $x Fiction 650 $a Race Relations $x Fiction 650 $a Interracial Marriage $x Fiction 650 $a Indians Of North America $x Fiction $x Government Relations $x Fiction 650 $a Standing Bear, Molly (Fictitious character) $x Fiction 650 $a West (U.S.) $x Fiction 650 $a Diary fiction 650 $a Historical fiction 650 $a Western fiction 700 1 $a Standingbear, Molly $e editor. 941 $a 15 952 $l SMPE094 $d 20240104020353.0 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025011651.0 952 $l YEPF572 $d 20231012024527.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010021815.0 952 $l KAPF566 $d 20230331014144.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909064102.0 952 $l BVPE851 $d 20220728021459.0 952 $l XZPB787 $d 20220203011417.0 952 $l TVPD862 $d 20211208122431.0 952 $l KWPE446 $d 20210803013437.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20210602010327.0 952 $l JBPC145 $d 20210518140050.0 952 $l HRPE845 $d 20210504014239.0 952 $l WSPF215 $d 20210504012425.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20210416012036.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7D0884D29E7911EBAE5EC6A932ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
