Born in 1820 near the Black Hills, she knew prosperity—her father could afford an expensive Buffalo Maiden ceremony—and eventually tragedy. The Indian woman feels profoundly the chill of change: the decimation of the buffalo, the coming of white settlers to the Great Plains, the wars that reduce her people to raggedness. After the Battle of the Little Big Horn and an attack that leaves her band homeless, Grandmother Whirlwind faces her final challenge in joining the band’s journey through snow toward refuge in Canada. With attention to timeless humanity and time-bound history, Dorothy M. Johnson’s novel follows the life of Whirlwind, seeing through her eyes the daily routine and rituals of the Sioux.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49925980684561,"sku":"GOR008894993","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50093510361361,"sku":"CIN0803275838VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50243024814353,"sku":"CIN0803275838G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51007284510993,"sku":"NIN9780803275836","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0803275838.jpg?v=1751329670"},{"product_id":"indian-country-rare-book-dorothy-m-johnson-1662749073gdf","title":"Indian Country","description":"1968.

Johnson’s prize-winning Buffalo Woman continues the story of Grandmother Whirlwind’s family of Hunkpapa and Oglala Sioux who flee to Canada with Sitting Bull after the Battle of the Little Bighorn. All the Buffalo Returning is a haunting novel about the fate of the Lakotas who find no surcease in Canada but are driven back onto their dwindling reservation by starvation. They face the enormous problem of surviving in the world of the white conquerors. Stormy, the grandson of Whirlwind, travels with his family to Pine Ridge for Wovoka’s Ghost Dance. There, true believers who perform the sacred dance will experience the return of the lost buffalo and pony herds as well as the spirits of the beloved dead.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50366935761169,"sku":"CIN0803275900G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51007541674257,"sku":"NIN9780803275904","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0803275900.jpg?v=1750786385"},{"product_id":"some-went-west-book-dorothy-m-johnson-9780803275980","title":"Some Went West","description":"Dorothy Johnson, author of The Hanging Tree and Indian Country, describes the great western experience of a number of nineteenth-century women of widely different situations and fates. Some were captured by Indians. Cynthia Ann Parker, assimilated to the Comanche tribe after being captured as a child, was later recaptured by U.S. soldiers who killed her Comanche husband and separated her forever from her sons. Pioneer Fanny Kelly spent five months as a captive of the Sioux; she went on to write a clearheaded book about her experiences. Some, like missionary Mary Richardson Walker and the independent Dr. Bethenia Owens-Adair, showed great dedication to their work. Some were adventurous. Molly Slade, fiercely loyal to her ruthless husband, once helped him escape a band of outlaws intent on killing him. The intrepid Isabella Bird reported on her solitary travels in the Wild West, while Army wife Elizabeth Custer rode out with her husband’s cavalry one spring. Others proved their grit as homesteaders. All these women, and more, figure unforgettably in Some Went West.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50509815415057,"sku":"CIN0803275986G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51007383994641,"sku":"NIN9780803275980","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51326937235729,"sku":"CIN0803275986VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0803275986.jpg?v=1761387887"},{"product_id":"the-bloody-bozeman-the-perilous-trail-to-montana-s-gold-book-dorothy-johnson-9780070325760","title":"The Bloody Bozeman: The Perilous Trail to Montana's Gold","description":"The Bozeman Trail led to the goldfields of Montana for six years in the 1860s before the army abandoned its three forts along the way, yielding to Red Cloud and his warriors.

And no one has written with keener perception of the Indians themselves...Here is no glamorizing, no romantic gilding, of settlers or of Indians. Here is something finer and more gripping, the honest portrayal of good and bad, of strength and frailty, of the admirable and contemptible, in both white settlements and Indian villages.\" - Jack Schaefer, in his foreword to \"Indian Country\". \"Indian Country\" contains two of Dorothy M. Johnson's most famous stories. \"A Man Called Horse\" depicts the life of a white captive in a Crow Indian camp. \"The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance\" explains in flashback why a prominent senator appears at the funeral of an obscure western codger. Both stories were adapted into highly successful movies. These eleven stories show a frontier alive with complex struggles. Dorothy M. Johnson, the Montana-based author of \"The Hanging Tree\" and \"Buffalo Woman\", both Bison Books, brings to western fiction a clear ideal of individuality and honor.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50958555513105,"sku":"GOR009587299","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":52634498269457,"sku":"CIN0803275854VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53054053417233,"sku":"CIN0803275854G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0803275854.jpg?v=1750850045"},{"product_id":"hanging-tree-book-dorothy-m-johnson-9780803275843","title":"The Hanging Tree","description":"The title story, The Hanging Tree, is based on a true episode in Montana's gold-mining past.
