With the help of his sister, Edward J. Driving Hawk recounts his life as a veteran of the Korean and Vietnam wars and former chairman of the Rosebud Sioux Tribe.

“Too Strong To Be Broken: The Life of Edward J. Driving Hawk” also follows pivotal moments in his life including his struggle with alcoholism and suffering the effects of exposure to Agent Orange.
