Agreed . . . of course! . . . it just saddens me to revisit these historical accounts. I know . . . there's a lesson in that.
As part of US History in college we had to read numerous excerpts of Howard Zinn's People's History of the United States . . . after this book you'd think America WAS the "great Satan".

I think "Bury my Heart at Wounded Knee" was the book that got me to thinking about the Indians in a different light and not the sterotypical Hollywood image of the 40's and 50's
