To Kill an Eagle by Edward Kadlecek and Mabell Kadlecek. Indian views on the last days of Crazy Horse. (Johnson Books, 170 pp., paperback) This unique book sheds new light on Crazy Horse and his people, the Teton Sioux. It is based on interviews with over thirty elderly Sioux people as well as years of research in published and unpublished sources. All of the informants either knew Crazy Horse themselves or had been told about him by older relatives. Much of the information in this book is new, either not having been published before or contradicting the commonly accepted story. The authors are able to tie episodes in Crazy Horse’s life to specific geographical areas, to clarify for the first time the confused events surrounding the death, and to make a strong case for the exact place of his burial. The authors lived most of their lives in Beaver Valley in northwestern Nebraska and were lifelong friends of the Pine Ridge people. Edward Kadlecek passed away shortly after the first publication of this book. Mabell Kadlecek now lives in Alexandria, Louisiana.
