Meer over het boek

The narrative follows Charles A. Eastman, known as Ohiyesa, whose life journey resembles a fairy tale. Orphaned at a young age, he was raised by his grandmother in a wigwam. At just four years old, he witnessed the devastating conflict between his Sioux tribe and the U.S. government, leading to significant loss and displacement. Eastman and his family sought refuge in Canada, while his father was captured. This poignant tale explores themes of resilience, cultural identity, and the impact of war on indigenous peoples.
