- Soft-spoken and physically unassuming, a boy named Slow grows
to become the battle-scarred Sitting Bull, the most famous and respected leader
on the Great Plains
- Sitting Bull leads his people in the fight to preserve the
sacred Black Hills, Paha Sapa
- The great chief's futile appeals to the Canadian govenment for
a reservation fall on deaf ears
- The Terry Commission comes north to negotiate the return of
Sitting Bull and his band to the United States
- In his later years, Sitting Bull continues to work for his
people, performing in Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, earning money to help
support them and pleading their case with the U.S. government and its
citizens.
