reviewed Wovoka and the Ghost Dance: Expanded Edition on August 12, 2015 Wovoka and the Ghost Dance: Expanded Edition
I read (and reread) this book as part of an extensive research project I engaged in for the current book I am writing, in which Wovoka is a main character. This is the best book about Wovoka and the Ghost Dance that I found, and includes extensive interviews and comments by people who knew him. Because he has been magnified as a historical character due to his supposed connection to the death of Sitting Bull and the Massacre at Wounded Knee, the disparity between that overplayed and exaggerated claim and who the man was, is amusing and instructive. A valuable and necessary sourcebook for anyone interested in the period, in the man, and in the phenomena of the Ghost Dance.
