Product Information

An unforgettable American story,Dances With Wolveswas an international bestseller that has be-come a modern classic. The 1990 film adaptation won seven Academy Awards.In The Holy Road, master storyteller Michael Blake at long last continues the saga. Eleven years have passed since Lieutenant John Dunbar became the Comanche warrior Dances With Wolves and married Stands With A Fist, a white-born woman raised as a Comanche from early childhood. With their three children, they live peacefully in the village of Ten Bears. But there is unease in the air, caused by increased reports of violent confrontations with white soldiers, who want to drive the Comanches onto reservationsa movement symbolized by the railroad, the white man's holy road. Disquiet turns to horror, and then to rage, when a band of white rangers descends on Ten Bears' village, slaughtering half its inhabitants and abducting Stands With A Fist and her infant daughter. The three surviving great warriorsWind In His Hair, Kicking Bird, and Dances With Wolves decide they must go to war with the white inva-ders. At the same time, Dances With Wolves realizes that only he can move unnoticed among the white men to rescue his wife and child. Told with the same sweep, insight, and majesty that have made Dances With Wolves a worldwide phenomenon, The Holy Road is an epic story of courage and honor.

Reviews
"Epic, tragic . . . Inhuman agony, brilliantly portrayed." --Kirkus Reviews(starred review) "The young men were especially troubled. They had planned and dreamed and striven all their lives for opportunities to prove themselves, but the perplexing rush of events that culminated in the most recent council denied them the chance to live fully. If there were no buffalo, how could anyone hunt? Or feed a family? Or have a family? If there were no horses to steal, how could a man grow rich? How could a man win honors if there was no enemy to fight?" --fromThe Holy Road, "Epic, tragic . . .

    A needed story to close up "Dances."

    If you are a fan of Dances you would like this book. Blake continues his favorable paternalistic view of the lives of the Dakota Sioux and their relationship to their land and influx of strangers, The story and plot development is good. The first half of the book is an excellent read, hard to put down, but I thought the last half was less so. Nevertheless, a needed extension to successfully close up the stories of the Dances characters and the end of the open prairie.

  • Nicer than I expected

    The book was in great shape even though it was older. Haven't really read all of it yet, but it is slow reading. Expected more.
