"Inspired by actual events in the lives of two young men living on the Great Plains of North America during the Plains Indian Wars of 1861-1890; one, an orphaned Arapaho boy named Frank Henderson and the other, a Northern Cheyenne warrior called Little Finger Nail. Both of them recorded their past and present histories by drawing in 'ledger books.' Twelve multicolored drawings ... come from a 1988 facsimile edition of Frank Henderson's drawing book"--From publisher's description.
