about my father’s book. The professor had previously told the students I was doing research on Crazy Horse and they might ask me about the great warrior. The class was four hours long and I had been speaking for about forty-five minutes on the book my father had written, when a student stood up and raised his book and slammed it back on the table saying, “I came to hear about Crazy Horse!â€Â That’s when I realized that Crazy Horse is so memorialized by his people. He was against alcohol and white men aggression of his hunting ground. He hated white men. Why would the spirit of Crazy Horse haunt me, a white man? About The Book - Book Information - Contact “One evening while visiting with Richard Moves Camp, he told me, “He [Crazy Horse] was a great warrior and we should remember his deeds and what he stood for. The warrior belongs to the earth and the grass. Mystery is what he believed in; he is in the spirit world and let that spirit be. It has a life of its own, let it carry on.†“In this book you will find interviews with descendants of the Black Elk family. Black Elk was a famed Lakota Holy man and cousin of Crazy Horse. Few know that Black Elk died a Catholic, Christened Nicholas Black Elk and Christianity was part of his funeral ceremony. “Richard Moves Camp, a revered medicine man who’s grandfather Chips was the medicine man for Crazy Horse, endorses this book saying it has filled many gaps between our people. It has helped us gain an understanding between white and Lakota Culture. “It is goodâ€. “A Lakota archeology student asked me about dowsing (which is like water witching for deep wells only focusing on finding graves). I am a mortician who is able to dowse for grave sites. I tell a number of stories about finding graves and whether or not this method should be used to find Crazy Horse or not. “I suppose you could say it is a story that has compassion for a culture that lost most of it’s land to violated treaties (which is illustrated by 15 detailed maps designed by a neighbor of mine as well as one hundred pictures of old friends of Crazy Horse and places he haunted).
