They Never Surrendered: The Lakota Sioux Band That Stayed In Canada

Painstakingly researched with an eye for detail, They Never Surrendered: The Lakota Sioux Band That Stayed in Canada by Ron Papandrea covers a topic long neglected in the United States and Canada. After the defeat of General Custer at the Battle of the Little Big Horn in the Great Sioux War of 1876, Sitting Bull and thousands of Lakota Sioux escaped the American army by going to Canada. Crazy Horse was killed while in American custody and many of his followers also went to Canada. The disappearance of the buffalo on the Canadian plains forced most of the Lakota Sioux in Canada to return to the United States within five years; they surrendered and settled on American reservations. More than 250 brave souls remained in Canada and never surrendered. This is their story.

5Quote From Cheyenne River Lakota Nation  May 23, 2008
By Dawn M. Gruenburg
Here is a quote from a Lakota Sioux living at the Cheyenne River reservation in South Dakota:

"I have read "They Never Surrendered" by Ron Papandrea. His research on the Lakota who won the Battle of the Little Big Horn, and escaped the army by crossing the Medicine Line into Canada, is a valuable work for anyone interested in learning about my people. It covers a little known part of Lakota, American and Canadian history. As a person who is a descendant of these Lakota men and women, I consider this book an important record."

5The Lost Band of Lakota Sioux  May 02, 2008
By Robert Schumann
This book clears up the mystery of what happened to the Lakota Sioux who escaped to Canada with Sitting Bull, but never returned to the United States. This is the lost band of Lakota Sioux. Their exact number is calculated. In fact, the whole book is well documented with over 200 endnotes throughout the work. Also, new information about Wounded Knee and the two famous Lakota Chiefs named "Black Moon". The author has taken the time to go up to Canada and get to know the people he writes about. Well done!

5Wood Mountain Lakota  Jun 28, 2008
By Ronald A. Bull
They Never Surrendered: The Lakota Sioux Band That Stayed In CanadaA very well researched and presented history of the "Wood Mountain Lakota" who remained in Canada after the surrender of Sitting Bull in 1881.
This book is full of endnotes, appendices, maps and photos, and is a must for anyone interested in the Sioux in Canada.
Well worth the money!

4They Never Surrendered  Apr 03, 2009
By Louis R. Garcia
This is a well researched book.
Good maps.
However I would recommend this book to only serious Lakota historins.
This is a book for researchers, not for reading pleasure.

53rd Edition, Revised  Nov 04, 2007
By Ronald J. Papandrea "Ron Papandrea"
Since December, 2009, the 3rd Edition, Revised, has been available. The hardcover ISBN is 978-0-9746527-3-3. The paperback ISBN is 978-0-9746527-4-0. I am the author of this book and previous editions are obsolete, even though they are going for high prices on used book websites. Amazon is selling the hardcover for less than $21.00 and the paperback for less than $12.00. You should not have to pay more than that for the best edition available, the 3rd Edition, Revised.
