Dan O'Brien's earlier award-winning novel The Contract Surgeon introduced readers to Valentine McGillycuddy, a friend of the great war chief Crazy Horse. Through McGillycuddy's eyes, the novel recounts the friendship that so deeply impacted history. It also chronicles the great Sioux Wars, one of the most violent periods in this nation's history.The Indian Agent is the riveting sequel to The Contract Surgeon. After Crazy Horse's death, McGillycuddy went on to become the youngest agent in history for the Red Cloud Agency, renamed the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, of the Oglala Lakota band of the Sioux. Although Red Cloud and McGillycuddy have diametrically opposing views, they have more in common than either suspects. They both love the land, and they both love the past. The politics and the enormous tensions of the early days on the reservation come to life here in fascinating detail, as McGillycuddy (known as "the most investigated man" in the government) urges the Sioux to adopt a life of farming. Because he had lived on the vast plains with them, no white man knew better what the Sioux had given up--or understood more fully the impossibility of returning to the old life.
Full of the dynamic history of the plains, The Indian Agent is the true story of the conversion of this land from one of free nomadic people to one of settled commerce--achieved, however, at an unfathomable cost.

Very sturdy!
Size: 31.5 Inch, Color: Rustic Brown
I absolutely love these shelves. They were easy to put together and hang up and they look fantastic. I ended up having to use extra boards to screw it to the wall just because of the location of the wall stud, but you can't notice it at all, really. They are pretty big , the picture doesn't do it justice. I'm very pleased with this purchase.

Sturdy, secure, well-crafted, and gorgeous.
This is a dark photo but I ordered this for a safe and beautiful space to keep the ashes of my past pets who meant the world to me. It is true to size, holds weight exactly as described, easy to assemble, and securely mounted with everything you need included - they even send a magnetic screwdriver for you.
The variety of lights colors and modes are exceptional, and there are dimming features and many permutations of light sequences and patterns you can choose from if you want to give it an automatic setting. It's a perfect final resting place for my pets where I know they can be honored beautifully for the rest of my life. Recommend this purchase for any project on your list requiring a shelf with a lighted back. The hanging hooks and lower bar are an added bonus. High quality product, very versatile, and amazing value.
