This is an audiobook, and as far as I can tell it's only in audio form. 


It is hard to beat a native american historical narrative by an educated native american. Highly recommended. 


I remember listening to this audio as I drove along the outskirts of a reservation in Wyoming. Definitely added to the gravity of the subject matter.


Amazon descriptionMention the name Crazy Horse, and many of us will remember a history lesson about a faceless Indian warrior who defeated General George Custer at the Battle of the Little Big Horn. But beyond this singular event, who was this man? And what teaching did he offer to all peoples of every nation? On Quiet Thunder, Lakota lineage holder Joseph M. Marshall III presents the first audio-learning program based entirely on the rich oral tradition of his people to share a vibrant portrait "painted with the brush of reality rather than the distortion of legend." With him, you will meet a compassionate but purposeful man driven by the empowering vision of a "Thunder Dreamer"- one who "walked the path of giving as opposed to gaining," honor instead of ego, and leadership through leading, not authority. Let the past come alive with Quiet Thunder as Joseph M. Marshall III uncovers the life and teachings of Crazy Horse-warrior, visionary, and beloved leader of the Lakota nation.
