Give Your Heart to the Hawks: A Tribute to the… von Winfred Blevins

Good account of the mountain men during the heyday of the fur trade in the American West. More of a character study of several men and of the time. Not an exact history.

Journal of a Mountain Man: Mountain Man Classics,… von Win Blevins

Why I bailed on this one - As another reviewer said, this is not a book to curl up with and read cover to cover and since it was a Amazon borrow or Amazon lending or whatever it's called, I decided to return it. It would be better to buy a cheap second hand copy and read it whenever the mood strikes.

Stone Song: A Novel of the Life of Crazy Horse von Win Blevins

The life of His Crazy Horse and his spirit animal, Hawk. Sobering look at how the Whites usurped the Indians by repeatedly promising things and not fulfilling them. Sad to see the end of a civilization. He was eventually betrayed by a lying translator and died at age 37.
