Description
Frank Fools Crow was a spiritual and civic leader who spent nearly a century helping those in need. A disciplined and gentle man, he upheld the old ways while denouncing the social ills that threatened his people. His life was marked by eventful experiences, including early reservation days, vision quests, and travels abroad. Fools Crow's story is told through interviews conducted in the 1970s, offering a unique glimpse into his spiritual life and leadership. He recounts his involvement in ceremonies such as the Yuwipi and sweatlodge rituals, the Sun Dance, and instances of physical healing. His life was also marked by personal achievements, including marriages, movie work, and tribal leadership. This book provides an insight into Fools Crow's remarkable life, from his early days on the reservation to his later years as a respected leader and advocate for his people.
