Synopsis

一部展现印第安人淳朴顽强和美国西进运动血腥残酷的不朽名著，根据本书改编的同名电影荣获多项第65届金球奖提名。

对许多人来说，美国西部始终是一个神秘的地方，大平原、牛仔、印第安人的异域服饰等赋予西部冒险和浪漫的印象。向西扩张的历史被营造成勇敢、上进的白人拓荒者历尽艰险改造蛮荒部落、打造现代文明的过程。而本书作者则呈现了美国西进运动中血腥、残酷及满是欺诈、背信弃义和毁灭的一面。

迪伊·布朗通过整理目击者的叙述、部落的历史和其他档案文件，记述了从纳瓦霍人的长途迁徙开始，到伤膝谷对苏人大屠杀结束的西部边疆三十年冲突史。作者以达科他人、尤特人、苏人、夏延人和其他印第安部落的酋长和武士们的口吻，讲述了他们所经历的战斗、大屠杀和那些被蓄意破坏的条约。美国印第安人面对白人的西进运动，最终失去了他们的土地、生命和自由。
