Description

Custer, Sitting Bull and Little Bighorn are familiar names in the history of the American West.

Yet the Great Sioux War of 1876 was a less notorious affair than earlier events in Minnesota during 1862, when over a few bloody weeks hundreds of white settlers were killed by Sioux led by Little Crow.

The following three years saw military thrusts under Generals Sibley and Sully onto the Western Plains, where hundreds of Indians, as innocent as the white victims, were cut down by American soldiers.

From this carnage Sitting Bull first emerged as a military leader.

This history reexamines the facts behind Sitting Bull's legend, and that of the white captive, Fanny Kelly.
