An illuminating picture book biography of the Lakota warrior and chief Red Cloud, from awardwinning author and illustrator S. D. Nelson.Red Cloud (18221909) was a great warrior and chief of the Lakota. Told from his perspective, Red Cloud: A Lakota Story of War and Surrender describes the events that brought him to prominence as a leader of his people and how he came to surrender them to the wasichus (White Man), ending their way of life on the Great Plains.From the intrusion of white settlers into Lakota territory, to the treaties signed with the US government, and to the many subsequent battles, Red Cloud explains how the Lakota became the only nation to win a war against the US Army on American soil. However, unlike fellow warriors Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull, Red Cloud eventually came to accept the inevitable advance of white civilization. He submitted to change and moved his followers onto a reservation. The story concludes with Red Clouds trip to the East Coast, where he visited New York City and met President Ulysses S. Grant.Awardwinning author and member of the Standing Rock Sioux tribe S. D. Nelson reinterprets the 19thcentury Lakota ledgerart style to give authenticity to the story as he brings to light one of the most controversial members of the Lakota tribe, Red Cloud. Backmatter includes a timeline.
