5 out of 5 stars - Wild Horses Couldn't Drag Me Away

Outstanding! A rare jewel! Many have written about the ending days of Native American life in the 1800's. Very few have had the ability to imbue the deep connection these people had with each other, their way of life and the heartbreak they endured. It is almost as though Terrie McClay has physically stepped back in time. Much more than a love story, it is an education. Written with eloquence, beauty, compassion and attention to detail, Wind In The Grasses Dancing has raised the bar in achievement. I highly recommended this book to anyone studying Native American Culture; or anyone, regardless of skin color, who feels a deep and abiding connection to these people and times. I will cherish this story for many moons to come.

I am enthralled. What wonderful writing. McClay vividly describes the life and times of Dancing Wind. She humanizes history and brings it to life. This is such a magnificent tale. So well done. Masterful! From one page to the next, it is a jewel of writing. While reading, I became very emotional at times. The book is that good. Not many things can make a grown man cry, but this book is an exception. I love the author's attention to detail, including indigenous plants and animals. The characters are so well-defined. Her in-depth research is evident throughout. I loved how McClay described how the Lakota dressed and painted themselves, how they tanned skins, how they built lodges, and on and on. My goodness! What a work of art!

Ms. McClay has written a story to satisfy the heart as well as the mind. While the romance is poignant, I equally enjoyed the well researched work into Native American life and lore. This lady knows her material and is a natural storyteller. I highly recommend it.
5.0 out of 5 stars - An Excellent Book
This is a very exciting saga which wraps real history around a wonderful love story. The characters are real and each one has a very separate and interesting personality. The history is fascinating and, I suspect, truer than what is typically written in the history books. It is said that "history is written by the winners" and this is one story that relates the unfortunate truth of the native american story. Well done!!
