"[This] is what rode south toward the Rosebud on the night of June
16--17, 1876: thunder dreamers, storm splitters, men who could turn
aside bullets, men on horses that flew like hawks or darted like
dragonflies. They came with power as real as a whirlwind, as if the
whole natural world--the bears and the buffalo, the storm clouds and
the lightning--were moving in tandem with the Indians, protecting them
and making them strong."

smells like Pynchon don't it?

thomas powers usually writes about intelligence matters. the guy's got
good range

something to put on the shelf next to son of the morning star
