Description: Blue Water Creek and the First Sioux War, 1854–1856 R. Eli Paul Indian Wars Blue Water Creek and the First Sioux War, 1854–1856 by R. Eli Paul The book features a unique look at American history, plenty of charm and insight, hard to find title, nice reference, will look great in your collection. In previous accounts, the U.S. Army’s first clashes with the powerful Sioux tribe appear as a set of irrational events with a cast of improbable characters—a Mormon cow, a brash lieutenant, a drunken interpreter, an unfortunate Brulé chief, and an incorrigible army commander. R. Eli Paul shows instead that the events that precipitated General William Harney’s attack on Chief Little Thunder’s Brulé village foreshadowed the entire history of conflict between the United States and the Lakota people.
