The discovery of gold in Montana in 1863 led to the opening of a 250-mile military road connecting the goldfields with Fort Laramie--a road that crossed the most prized hunting grounds of the Lakota (Sioux) and their allies. By 1866, the harassment of travelers on the road by the tribes escalated into a full-blown campaign of resistance against the U.S. Army. This two-volume account tells the engrossing story of how Native Americans, led by Lakota chief Red Cloud, inflicted one setback after another on the U.S. Army, successfully reclaiming their hunting grounds and forcing the U.S. to sue for peace.
