Surviving Yellowstone: The Last Great American Indian War Part II

In June 1877 the final great American Indian War began when Chief Joseph and four other chiefs refused to comply with a treaty they had not signed. They led their groups of Nez Perce away from their ancestral lands and the reservation in an attempt to retain their freedom. Their flight led them through the heart of Yellowstone, the world's first and newly created National Park. In the Park the Indians encountered several groups of whites. The consequences were fatal for some and life-changing for all. This is a first-hand account of four groups and their encounters told by survivors. This book is the second of 3 parts telling these amazing true tales. Part 2 starts with the tourists' deadly encounters with the Nez Perce and finishes with the end of the war, it is a must read for survival enthusiasts and western history buffs alike!
