krissymartini 's review for:
Fools Crow
by James Welch
This was Montana. What an impressive novel. It feels like quite the feat tell such a comprehensive story of the Blackfeet tribe in the Montana territory - and from so many different POVs! I really appreciated peppering in the day to day drama in the tribe while also tracking the arc of the wall closing in on the Pikunis - between the Napikwans, small pox, and the drastic thinning of the herds that keep these folks fed. I'd recommend to anyone looking to read an own voices story about indigenous people in America, particularly in the time right after the Civil War, when white colonizers (called seizers or Napikwans here) shifted their focus to stealing land from as many tribes as possible, as quickly as they could.
