Abstract

Until now, the only book-length treatment of the Lakota nation's effort to reclaim the stolen He Sapa (Black Hills) has been Edward Lazarus's Black Hills/ White Justice (1991), which is as much an apologia for his father Arthur Lazarus as it is a history of events: Arthur Lazarus was the attorney instrumental in eventually winning the Supreme Court case United States v. Sioux Nation of Indians, which awarded substantial damages for the United States' theft of the Black Hills.
