Thank you for another wonderful reading. These stories are definitely prime time, too bad Hollywood can't see beyond their own noses.

@Kyle Prather Not talking about the fantasy, talking about the realism.

Hollywood is purely political and loves to push a false narrative. Its refreshing to hear facts written from long ago without a false agenda

I agree! What a descriptive writer!!

[@guerrillapress7343]

[@William-Marshall]

Expat Expat : why would she need a ghost writer ? Fanny was Educated, excellent memory, please note when this was published. Persons in this day are not as eloquent as were in those days of yore. I personally appreciate her total recall. I should be as eloquent as she. So should we All.

[@scclif]

The Indians allowed her a journal a Timex and a calander .

[@YRofTexas]

@@scclif Don't forget the compass and a map...jk Under extreme stress, survival mode, and survival skills taught at home, her story details make sense. The people of her time had few distractions, and all loved the family story tellers. A big part of their culture back then.

[@AndreComtois]

She needed a ghost writer because there was a stimga agains the men and women who were taken captive. Some felt it was their fault or they didn't try hard enough to escape or they should have resisted harder. The same thing happened to the European jews who survived the concentration camps and the migrated to Isreal after WWII.

[@charlespendola4775]

Great story!!! Thanks!!

[@arthurzengeler8296]

I first read this book, which was audio, a few years ago. I was so interested, partially because I lived in Wyoming, about 50 years ago. After that, I found this channel, and was amazed, hearing all these stories of Indian encounters, which I never heard, since they would have been on the history channel, or one like it. I like this narrative, better than the audio book. There are numerous pictures, and the story presented, in a more comprehensive way. So thanks a lot.

[@ChooseForToday]

very few of the pictures are actually related to the story, though.

Most interesting. Thank you for your explanation, as I have been most curious , of your title. Very very interesting, again my thanks. Your love of history, your most valuable , excellent reading. Our gain is your reading, actually, you are more interesting in your presentation, than in television or a movie, they would only try to ( in their view) to create more drama. None can be be made ,Fanny Kelly is true and faithful as to her many trials. My thanks to you can only fall short of this gift you offer to each of us.

There are not many options when traveling, and it would feed animals, so not actually be wasted completely. There are times when all parts are used, preserved for later, etc. But when traveling there are fewer options for literally thousands of pounds of meat.

She's very pretty in that picture of her with the ringlets in her hair. It reminds me of a picture of me when I was 8 years old. My Mom used to brush out my blonde hair, after my bath, and thrn wind the natural curls around her finger and them in ringlets. That prepated my hair for Sunday morning church, the next day.

[@robertafierro5592]

This is a different version than what I read about later. Now I realize that the narrator was going g to continue..I thought at some point, someone would interject, and then the video would take off. If you look, everything is off. Accuracy didn't mean whole lot then and it sure dosent mean anything today. Just wondering if you're connected, in some way, to Mr. Hoffman.

[@DonnaMM6361]

Where did all these paintings come from? The paintings and location photos are amazing and should be cited. Is there a website that gives this information?

[@unworthyhistory]

A lot of the paintings were computer-generated by Dalle-2: openai.com/dall-e-2/. It's something I've been using since my video on Sarah Larimer's escape. It seems to help bring these stories to life, since there are only so many old paintings or photographs I can find. Many of the other paintings were done by George Catlin, including the one in the thumbnail, which is titled "The Dog Feast," and the ones from the buffalo hunt.

[@DonnaMM6361]

@@unworthyhistory Wow! Nice job! They are wonderful.

[@robertafierro5592]

Did they use Salt back then? Not for meat preservation, the way we started to, but for indigenous diets..flavoring..no need for colors for food, their clarity would reple that notion. Just a thoughts comment. Some of the illustrations remind me of one of the textbooks u would have studied from in the very late Sixties and Seventies, growing up in Manhattan!

Now I have a better understanding why the Blackfeet are not fans of the Lakota/Sioux to today.

[@rickyhurtt5568]

Thanks for the reading. There's parts to this that I wonder if she didn't kind of stretch or just make up. Why would these people treat her so well when when she was a captive? I don't know a great lot but it don't seem like other captive stories

[@unworthyhistory]

Most people think she was taken as a wife of the chief, although she denied ever being treated in that way.

[@melissasweeting-percentie6679]

Hello and thank you for this work. May I ask where you found the beautiful paintings to go along with the story? Are they part of her book?

[@unworthyhistory]

A couple of them are from the book, others are old paintings I found on the internet, and some paintings were created by me using Dalle-2 (AI). They should have the Dalle-2 signature at the bottom right which is a few squares of different colors, if the painting was created using Dalle-2.

Trying to figure out what I just read. 🤦‍♀

[@marymoriarity2555]

The tales of harshness caused by the capture of these women by the endings, are more interesting than in a Hollywood version of western United States in the mid-19th century. What is the story of White settlers actually stealing Indian territory. Not that I think the treatment of the women by the captors what is fair and I can just imagine the nightmares. These women suffered the rest of their lives. However, the land actually did belong to the tribes of Indians or motive Americans, and not to the white man farmers. It is very hard to imagine this happened 150 years ago. Life was very hard.

[@maxinefreeman8858]

I'm confused. Which story is supposed to be accurate? I don't remember the site, a man was saying that another woman had stole the original story. Francis Kelly sued her. Did the other woman manage to sell the stolen?

[@catdogky]

Fanny Kelly is such a gifted writer. However, at many points within her stories, I find myself asking, “how would she know that?” I can’t help but to think she intersperses much flowery fiction among her historical non-fiction.

[@edmondmcdowell9690]

Hmmm, a little history.... SOUIX was the name the government gave them..... it meant Enemy ..... They called themselves, LAKOTA, WHICH MEANS THE PEOPLE! a lil fyi

[@jensjesfjeld6238]

Close. But your translation is the politically correct version.

[@katiesioux7757]

It's a French derivative of an Ojibwe word meaning enemy/ snake in the grass and the government ran w it

[@katiesioux7757]

My mother is Ojibwe and my father was Sicangu Lakota. The only dog eating that I know of is a religious, traditional ceremony for healing and puppy soup is made and it cured my dad's cancer when the Dr.s sent him home to die. The iwipi ceremony, if I remember correctly, and they had a sun dance for him and were able to add fourteen years to his life .
