Strongheart is the final installment to the One Thousand White
Women trilogy, a novel about fierce women who are full of heart and
the power to survive. In 1873, a Cheyenne chief offers President
Grant the opportunity to exchange one thousand horses for one
thousand white women, in order to marry them with his warriors and
create a lasting peace. These women, recruited by force in the
penitentiaries and asylums of the country, gradually integrate the
way of life of the Cheyenne, at the time when the great massacres
of the tribes begin. After the battle of Little Big Horn, some
female survivors decide to take up arms against the United States,
which has stolen from the Native Americans their lands, their way
of life, their culture and their history. This ghost tribe of
rebellious women will soon go underground to wage an implacable
battle, which will continue from generation to generation. In this
final volume of the One Thousand White Women trilogy, Jim Fergus
mixes with rare mastery the struggle of women and Native Americans
in the face of oppression, from the end of the 19th century until
today. With a vivid sense of the 19th century American West, Fergus
paints portraits of women as strong as they are unforgettable.
