Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. In 1940 Brummett Echohawk, a seventeen-year-old Pawnee boy, joined the Oklahoma National Guard. Within the year his unit, a tough collection of dust bowl cowboys, farmers, and more than a thousand Native Americans, would land in Europethere to distinguish themselves as, in the words of General George Patton, one of the best if, not the best division, in the history of American arms. During his service with the 45th Infantry, the vaunted Thunderbirds, Echohawk tapped the talent he had honed at Pawnee boarding school to document the conflict in dozens of annotated sketches.These combat sketches form the basis of Echohawks memoir of service with the Thunderbirds in World War II. In scene after scene he re-creates acts of bravery and moments of terror as he and his fellow soldiers fight their way through key battles at Sicily, Salerno, and Anzio. Woven with Pawnee legend and language and quickened with wry Native wit, Drawing Fire conveys in a singular way what it was like to go to war alongside a band of Indian brothers. It stands as a tribute to those Echohawk fought with and those he lost, a sharply observed and deeply felt picture of men at armscapturing for all time the enduring spirit and steadfast strength of the Native American warrior. Brummett Echohawk was born in 1922 in Pawnee, Oklahoma, into a family with a military tradition dating back to the Indian Wars of the 1860s, when his grandfather Howard Echohawk served as a famed Pawnee scout. A celebrated illustrator and artist best known for his focus on the American Indian and the American West, he also designed the flag of the Pawnee Nation and worked on several projects, including, with Thomas Hart Benton, the mural Independence and the Opening of the West at the Truman Memorial Library in Independence, Missouri. For his service in the World War II, Echohawk earned a Combat Infantry Badge, a Bronze Star Medal, the US Army Commendation Medal, two Invasion Arrowheads, a Purple Heart with two Oak Leaf Clusters, and a posthumous Congressional Gold Medal. A rare memoir of life as an WWII infantryman in Europe by a Native American (Pawnee) enhanced by his contemporary art.
