Where White Men Fear to Tread: The Autobiography of Russell Means

Autor Russell Means Marvin J. Wolf
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 oct 1996 – vârsta de la 14 până la 18 ani
Russell Means is the most controversial Indian leader of our time. "Where White Men Fear to Tread "is the well-detailed, first-hand story of his life so far, in which he has done everything possible to dramatize and justify the Native American aim of self-determination, such as storming Mount Rushmore, seizing Plymouth Rock, running for President in 1988, and--most notoriously--leading a 71-day takeover of Wounded Knee, South Dakota, in 1973. This visionary autobiography by one of our most magnetic personalities will fascinate, educate, and inspire. As Dee Brown has written, "A reading of Means's story is essential for any clear understanding of American Indians during the last half of the twentieth century."

Descriere

Russell Means is, without a doubt, the most controversial and perhaps most revolutionary Native American leader of this century. Where White Men Fear to Tread tells the first-hand story of Means' life so far, in which he has done everything possible to dramatize the Native American desire for self-determination--from storming Mt. Rushmore to seizing Plymouth Rock to leading a 71-day takeover of Wounded Knee. of photos.
