This is a hardcover edition of “CRAZY HORSE The Strange Man of the Oglalas” by Mari Sandoz. It is a 1st printing and published by Alfred A. Knopf in New York in 1942. The book and rare dust jacket are in near fine condition. This book covers the life of Crazy Horse, a famous Native American warrior and leader of the Oglala Lakota. The author, Mari Sandoz, provides a detailed and insightful look into the life of this influential figure in Native American history. Considered by many to be the best and most authentic book ever written about this legendary chief as the author relied almost entirely upon Indian sources.
