For nearly a century, the Lakota and Cheyenne had kept private their ancestors’ history of Battle of Little Bighorn.

Few non-Lakota knew the full story. That is, until author William Matson set out to fulfill his father’s dying wish: to tell the Lakota side of the Little Bighorn struggle and its aftermath. Matson reached out to the closest living relatives of Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull to document, with permission, their never-before publicly told oral histories-a journey that even renowned historians had not accomplished.

The ensuing odyssey entailed building trust and true relationships across cultures and within individuals. In My Father’s Footsteps spans over twenty years marked by spiritual visits from the ancestors, as well as the author’s own spiritual awakening. This page-turner is a book for the ages.
