Black Elk : the life of an American visionary

Jackson, Joe, 1955-2017
Books, Manuscripts
Black Elk, the Native American holy man, is know to millions of readers around the world from his 1932 testimonial, 'Black Elk Speaks'. Cryptic and deeply personal, it has been read as a spiritual guide, a philosophical manifesto, and a text to be deconstructed - while the historical Black Elk has faded from view. In this sweeping book, Joe Jackson provides the definitive biographical account of a figure whose dramatic life converged with some of the most momentous events in American history.
