Lone Bull's Mistake is a book written by James Willard Schultz that tells the story of a young Native American chief named Lone Bull. The book is set in the late 1800s and takes place in the Lodge Pole tribe's territory. Lone Bull is a proud and ambitious young man who is eager to prove himself as a leader. However, his impulsive nature leads him to make a grave mistake that puts his entire tribe in danger.The story begins with Lone Bull leading a hunting party deep into the mountains. While on the hunt, Lone Bull spots a herd of buffalo and decides to pursue them alone, against the advice of his fellow hunters. As he chases the buffalo, he becomes separated from his group and finds himself lost in the wilderness.As Lone Bull tries to find his way back to his tribe, he comes across a group of white settlers who are building a railroad through the Lodge Pole's land. Lone Bull sees this as a threat to his people's way of life and decides to take action. He leads a raid on the settlers' camp, but his attack is unsuccessful, and he is captured by the white men.Lone Bull's mistake not only puts him in danger but also puts his tribe at risk of retaliation from the white settlers. The story follows Lone Bull's journey as he tries to make amends for his mistake and save his people from the consequences of his actions.Overall, Lone Bull's Mistake is a compelling tale of courage, leadership, and redemption. It offers a unique perspective on the struggles faced by Native American tribes during the westward expansion of the United States.1917. In 1877 Schultz went to Montana for the summer to buffalo hunt. He ended up staying and became fascinated with the Indian life and joined the Blackfeet tribe. He learned to speak the Blackfeet language and married a Pikuni (Blackfeet) woman. He became a recorder of the open West romance and writer of stories of the at-large Indians. Often men like Schultz were characterized as hangers-on or romantic reporters, their lives and work show a more dedicated purpose�������to know and record the last of the Indian culture in its native landscape even as the culture was subsumed by white settlement, changed by forced moves to reservations, or even outlawed.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
