Read the passage from Indian Heroes and Great Chieftains, by Charles A. Eastman.

He [Crazy Horse] was an uncommonly handsome man. While not the equal of Gall in magnificence and imposing stature, he was physically perfect, an Apollo in symmetry. Furthermore he was a true type of Indian refinement and grace. He was modest and courteous as Chief Joseph; the difference is that he was a born warrior, while Joseph was not. However, he was a gentle warrior, a true brave, who stood for the highest ideal of the Sioux. Notwithstanding all that biased historians have said of him, it is only fair to judge a man by the estimate of his own people rather than that of his enemies.

Which correctly identifies the topic sentence of this paragraph?

a)He [Crazy Horse] was an uncommonly handsome man.

b)While not the equal of Gall in magnificence and imposing stature, he was physically perfect, an Apollo in symmetry.

c)He was modest and courteous as Chief Joseph; the difference is that he was a born warrior, while Joseph was not.

d)However, he was a gentle warrior, a true brave, who stood for the highest ideal of the Sioux.
