With caution

I would always air with a lot of caution when it comes to translation and interpretation from a colonial agenda. There is a very clear and racist bias from the author of this translation as one Mater of fact for euro-centric ideology as being superior to native world views.

A different world.

Fascinating reflection and recounting of a poignant time in our history and of a man whose name and life have come to symbolize the plight of native Americans.

Narrator slow, robotic and expressionless

Pat Bottino’s narration style reminds one of the old-fashioned Western movies in which the Indians’ speaking style Is slow, robotic and expressionless. I guess this was done in the movies to portray that the Indians didn’t speak English very well. The plotting, stilted delivery is unlistenable. And the racial stereotype is very tired.

Great listen

This book was for free with the subscription and I was very pleasantly surprised with how well it was narrated.
