This is a crazy story.
Grann writes this story in a well-paced and respectful way that also manages to keep the reader hooked. I did not want to put this book down (which doesn't happen to me often) and I never read non-fiction this fast.
I am very happy that the movie is coming out soon which will encourage more people to read this incredible story and learn more about the horrific way Native Americans were (and maybe still are?) treaded.
If you want the very basics of this story this adaptation is fine enough. It does oversimplify the story, which is to be expected. Sadly, all of Wilde's witty lines are left out, which is one of the things this story is best known for.
