Excerpt: ...It would have been a clear case of "dog eat dog," and we would have agreed to act in an impartial manner and not aid either side if they had consulted us in regard to it. For about an hour there were no new developments, except that the Indians, by one means or another, tried to decoy some of us away from the bridge. One Indian on horseback moved along a little beyond the edge of the bluff, leading the gray horse which Lieutenant Collins had ridden. The gray acted very unwilling to be led, and pulled back. Two of the Indians rode up to him and commenced whipping him, but the animal only curvetted about and did not get ahead very fast. Some of the boys took a few shots at the Indian, but the instant the flash from a gun was seen, the Indian would lean over on the opposite side of his pony, and all one could see would be his hand grasping the animal's mane, and his foot over its back. The instant the shot had passed, the Indian would straighten up again. The shots struck a pony or two, but we had no ammunition to spare for that sort of business, and orders were given to cease firing, save in case of an attack. As soon as the Indians saw they could not draw us out in that manner, they commenced to call us all the vile names they could think of, using language they had picked up among the whites previous to the breaking out of the war, or had learned from the renegrade whites among them. Just at this time, one of the boys sang out: "There comes the train!" And sure enough, there it was in sight, coming over the hills about four miles from the station. The Indians had perceived it about the same time, and in a minute every one of them was on his pony and urging his animal at its fastest pace in that direction. There was a...

Book Red Cloud s War  The situation

Download or read book Red Cloud s War The situation written by John Dishon McDermott and published by Arthur H. Clark Company. This book was released on 2010 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On a cold December day in 1866, Captain William J. Fetterman disobeyed orders and spurred his men across Lodge Trail Ridge in pursuit of a group of retreating Lakota Sioux, Arapahos, and Cheyennes. He saw a perfect opportunity to punish the tribes for harassing travelers on the Bozeman Trail and attacking wood trains sent out from nearby Fort Phil Kearny. In a sudden turn of events, his command was, within moments, annihilated. John D. McDermott's masterful retelling of the Fetterman Disaster is just one episode of Red Cloud's War, the most comprehensive history of the Bozeman Trail yet written. In vivid detail, McDermott recounts how the discovery of gold in Montana in 1863 led to the opening of the 250-mile route from Fort Laramie to the goldfields near Virginia City, and the fortification of this route with three military posts. The road crossed the Powder River Basin, the last, best hunting grounds of the Northern Plains tribes. Oglala chief Red Cloud and his allies mounted a campaign of armed resistance against the army and Montana-bound settlers. Among a host of small but bloody clashes were such major battles as the Fetterman Disaster, the Wagon Box Fight, and the Hayfield Fight, all of them famous in the annals of the Indian Wars. McDermott's spellbinding narrative offers a cautionary tale of hubris and mis-calculation. The United States Army suffered one setback after another; what reputation for effectiveness it had gained during the Civil War dissipated in the skirmishing in faraway Big Horn country. In a thoughtful conclusion, McDermott reflects on the tribes' victories and the consequences of the Treaty of 1868. By successfully defending their hunting grounds, the Northern Plains tribes delayed an ultimate reckoning that would come a decade later on the Little Bighorn, on the Red Forks of the Powder River, at Slim Buttes, at Wolf Mountain, and in a dozen other places where warrior and trooper met in the final clashes on the western plains. The leather-bound collector's edition is limited to fifty-five numbered and signed copies in a handsome slipcase, of which fifty are offered for sale.

Download or read book Promise written by and published by Bear Print. This book was released on 2004 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the story of the Bozeman Trail - the shortcut through Wyoming and Montana that initiated the so called Indian Wars on the Northern Plains - from multiple perspectives. To the Indians it was a route of invasion that led to cultural devastation and an end to a way of life. To the immigrants it was a pathway through the wilderness that lead to new settlements; a chance for owning land and future prosperity. To help the reader appreciate the complex clash of cultures the author employs both his pen and camera, writing sections from the opposing perspectives. The book opens with an imaginary letter from an emigrant woman describing her journey over the trail. It is linked to Native American interpretation of the Fetterman massacre through the eyes of a young Cheyenne warrior. Along with the narratives are words of warriors and soldiers who were involved in the events; including Fetterman's boast that with "80 men I could ride right through the Sioux Nation." Other quotes include Sherman's outright advocacy of the genocide of the Indians after Fetterman's defeat. On the Indian side men like Crazy Horse, American Horse, Sitting Bull and Red Cloud said that the whites made more promises than they could remember, "?but they kept only one. They promised to take our land, and they took it." The second half of the book is about "reflections" of the Bozeman Trail. Giving those reflections are a barrage of tribal historians, descendants of famous warriors who fought along the trail, as well as offspring of emigrants who traveled over the Trail. Chief Alfred Red Cloud, a great-grandson of Chief Red Cloud, presents the Red Cloud family's oral history of Red Cloud?s War to close the Bozeman Trail, while contemporary scholars such as Susan Badger Doyle discuss the role John Bozeman played in the establishment of the trail - he actually pioneered less than a quarter of the route. Chapman's award-winning photography, mixed with archival images, ranges from wildlife and scenery along the trail to images of Indians and other people, both past and present, adding depth to the narrative.
