Pursued by the US Army and Cavalry, the Nimiipuu fought battles, crossed the forbidding Bitterroot Mountains with their herds, and maintained their humanity and heritage against overwhelming odds. Bitterroot is dramatized history, giving voice to Joseph, Looking Glass, White Necklace, Half Man Half Woman, Howard \"The Christian Soldier,\" Calamity Jane, and Yellowstone Kelley--providing a mirror with which to see ourselves today. It portrays a conflicted America: racism, religious intolerance, and greed at war with liberty and equality. Such an epic story reminds us of our common humanity. \"It is for the young generation behind us,\" said Yellow Wolf. \"I want the next generation of whites to know and treat the Indians as themselves.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eKent Gramm is the author of \u003ci\u003eGettysburg: A Meditation on War and Values, November, Sharpsburg, Somebody's Darling, The Prayer of Jesus, \u003c\/i\u003ethree volumes of poetry, the novels \u003ci\u003eClare\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eCars\u003c\/i\u003e, and is co-author of \u003ci\u003eGettysburg: The Living and the Dead. \u003c\/i\u003eHe teaches Civil War Era studies at Gettysburg College.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 292\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.61 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 27, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47241036792057,"sku":"9781666747829","price":31.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/VzJUblZrK2JSbjBQRGpRRE91bDl2dz09_cb371fb6-9410-4f28-ab36-d672146678af.webp?v=1768575007","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/bitterroot-an-american-epic-paperback-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
