DAVE MCGARY IRON HAIL Warrior Series Iron Hail fought alongside such notables as Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, Gall and Red Leaf during the Indian wars. The storyteller recounts how as a young warrior, out hunting alone, he was attacked by an enemy war party of Crow Warriors. He found shelter in a rocky area and defended himself with great bravery against overwhelming odds. The young warrior’s prayers were answered by the Great Spirit Wakan Tanka, when the enemy was driven away by a sudden outburst of a very violent lightning storm with large hailstones that were as hard as iron. The story of his conflict bought great honor to the young warrior from the people and gave him the name “Iron Hail” MASTERWORK BRONZE WITH PATINA AND PAINT EDITION OF 40 SCULPTED IN 1999 |
