Black Elk Speaks

Presents the story of the Oglala Lakota visionary and healer Nicholas Black Elk 1863-1950 and his people during momentous twilight years of the nineteenth century.
It offers readers much more than a precious glimpse of a vanished time. Black Elks searing visions of the unity of humanity and Earth conveyed by John G. Neihardt have made this book a classic that crosses multiple genres.
