Title: What does it mean?
Product review: Before reading Counting Coup,I had no idea what the term "counting coup" meant. Since this book was related to basketball, I assumed it dealt with counting the wins and losses of basketball games. After reading, I found out it was more in depth than just counting wins and losses. "There were four primary ways to accomplish a coup: touch an enemy in battle, steal an enemy's horse, lead a successful war party, or capture an enemy's weapon. Of these, the bravest was to touch an enemy-not kill him-but touch him on the chest." To accomplish coup is an honor. The Indians do this for glory and dignity. I engoyed Counting Coup. It is a great book full of basketball, triumphs, victories, tears, laughs, and success.
