About this product
The tragic tale of the Nez Perce flight for freedom in the summer of 1877 is a touchstone in the history of the American West. Chief Joseph’s 1,200-mile running battle with the United States Army ended just forty miles from the Canadian border and safety, when he famously declared “I will fight no more forever” and accepted the fate of his people. However few people know the story of the confrontation between the Nez Perce and tourists in Yellowstone Park during that fateful summer. This collection of true stories from that extraordinary summer reveals the history of the ordinary people who were caught up in those dramatic events.
