Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online.

This book provides extensive information about the Great Sioux War, also known as the Black Hills War, which was a series of battles and negotiations between the Lakota and Northern Cheyenne, and the United States between 1876 and 1877. The Great Sioux War of 1876-77 contrasted sharply with the Bozeman War fought a decade earlier, where Lakota leaders received wide support from their bands for fighting. In the Great Sioux War, nearly two-thirds of all Lakota had settled at Indian agencies and did not support or participate in the battles. Read about the war's belligerents and commanders including Nelson A. Miles, George Armstrong Custer, Little Wolf, Crazy Horse, and much more.
