Black Elk Autobiography

I shall tell about black elk and the book of which told me his life well I mean sorta told me I mean books can't talk but you know. But anyhow the autobiography was called "Black Elk Speaks" and it was mostly about his life which i was expecting it to be about his life and Sioux history well it had his and his friends views on it. It also told about his visions throughout his life like when he was I believe it was 11 but anyway he said he had a vision when he was deathly ill about the beings of the west that were described as "regular horses but with electric manes and thunder in there noses" and a bay horse who told him to do something which wasn't put in it. But it wasn't just Black Elk there was a lot you see like Flaming Thunder I believe was one of them but there was one who wrote there account of "the battle of a thousand dead" and such but this book is a hard book to explain but its good.
