The author of “Memoirs of Chief Red Fox” is a Sioux 101 years of age who remembers the Battle of Little Big Horn and life on the North Dakota plains.

This interview, with Bill Schechner, was conducted in 1971, a few years before the U. S. attacks on the American Indian Movement and the people of the Pine Ridge Reservation had intensified. Chief Red Fox speaks at length about the battle of Little Big Horn, known in the U.S. history books a Custer’s Last Stand.
