Publisher's Note "It is the fascinating story not only of institutions but of people. Orlan Svingen has made a rich contribution to the history of the Cheyennes and the northern plains". -- Robert M. Utley "A valuable study of the Northern Cheyennes, one that is extremely well researched and nicely written". -- Montana: The Magazine of Western History
Industry Reviews Following the Sioux War of 1876, the Northern Cheyenne were moved from Montana and the western Dakotas to a reservation in Oklahoma. Those who returned to Montana settled 90 miles south of the military post near Rosebud Creek and the Tongue River, sparking years of bloodshed between the Northern Cheyenne and the cattlemen and townspeople. The author tells the story of the formation of the Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation from its origins to its confirmation and enlargement by an executive order from President McKinley.
