(4) 4-6 Bringing to light little-known WWII history, the Hunkpapa Lakota author presents a broad background but centers on the experiences of seven Sioux cavalrymen on the Pacific Front. The subjects communicated valuable information by radio in their native language in order to thwart Japanese decoders. The volume is dense with tiny type, but numerous black-and-white photographs break up the well-researched narrative. Bib., ind.
