It's a trilogy after all so the 3 films are all part of a whole, + 1 of the best types of stories Harris ever worked on! Aces!
In 1825, English peer Lord John Morgan is cast adrift in the American West. Captured by Sioux Indians, Morgan is at first targeted for quick extinction, but the tribesmen sense that he is worthy of survival. He eventually passes the many necessary tests that will permit him to become a member of the tribe.
Lord John Morgan has returned to civilized life in England, but finds he has nothing but disdain for that life. Yearning to embrace the simplicity of the American West, and the Sioux tribe he left behind, Morgan returns to the their land only to discover that they've been decimated by ruthless, government-backed fur traders. Led by Horse, they fight to repossess their land.
Shunka Wakan, formerly Lord John, helps his Dakota son defend their tribe against gold rushers.
