This is one of the best books I've read lately. Married during an era when biracial marriages were not acceptable, in a climate primed for violence, these two astounding people would make a difference by standing together against popular opinion. It's hard to believe that the prejudice was so prevalent. Julie Dobrow has written an essential record of the lives and events in the late 1800s and early 1900s.

This is a well researched, thorough double biography of Elaine Goodale and Charles Eastman. Nonfiction and biography readers will appreciate Love and Loss After Wounded Knee. This isn't a palate cleanser - it is intense. You have to be in the mood to read this voluminous, troubling history book.

A well written dual biography about the Wounded Knee Massacre, showing the complexities of life.
DNF due to genre preference. I really admire the extremely descriptive writing - this book had to of been EXTREMELY well researched.. While I love learning about history, because I’m simply not a nonfiction person, I wasn’t able to finish. I’m sure it will resonate with readers who enjoy this genre. I’d definitely recommend this book to any lovers of Biographies.
