A harrowing tale!

A book that is very difficult to get through such is the nature of the atrocities written about in these pages. A book that should be read by everyone!

Piercing, chilling and moving.

Horrific events of American history that has largely gone untold. Devastating, moving and a must read for all.

A Must Listen!

A true, terrible, shameful, sad insight into the tearing down of a peaceful proud culture. This account is also indicative of the treatment of all peaceful indigenous peoples exposed to 'civilized' western white people, and the destruction of cultures and ways of life globally.

A must for your library

Brings a deeper and thorough understanding of what transpired not that long ago. A common theme, through our eyes now, of how terribly Indians were treated, in their then, of what was perfectly acceptable.
Marvellously narrated and expertly written.

With great sadness.

Another auricle of how America decimated a race of people in a completely genocidal manner. Many more genecides were to follow,.

A Must Read

Simply a Must-Read.Take time to understand the documented mis-treatment of the Indigenous People of the Americas, a race whose contribution to our modern world is grossly misunderstood. What a profound almost tragic pleasure to listen to the accounts of American Indians attempting to negotiate with profoundly manipulative and self-interested colonial war-mongers and their ultimate reduction to prisoners in their own land ... A timely warning in these pandemic times - where the tipping point between mandated safety and innate freedom is constantly blurred. Listen to the words from an ancient race who valued the human spirit and its essential Freedom.

a very important book, should be studied by all

Absolutely heartbreaking book and should be studied by everyone. incredibly well written and a very powerful story. it's a great account of history and I think it's as important then the great books like The Rape of Nanking & Gulag Archipelago. These stories and it's people should never be forgotten.

Man's inhumanity to his fellow man

Listening to this book made me feel ashamed of the fact I am white. However, I excuse myself, as I spent 3 years in the north of Australia and virtually ally my friends were non-white. I do not hold any prejudices and I wish with all my heart that all human kind would feel the same.
