Customer Reviews

fantastically engrossing

I read this book in conjunction with some research I was doing on the Sand Creek Massacre for a term paper I was doing in college. My prof. gave me the book to use and I found myself totaly immersed in it. Mendoza does a wonderful job of describing why the massacre took place, how it took place, and the aftermath of the massacre. I would highly recommend it for anyone interested in American history.

An extrememly accurate and touching historical novel!

Pat's book is the most accurate account that I've read of the events leading up to the Sand Creek Massacre and the years that followed. Beautifully written and researched, this book will take you there, to Sand Creek on that fateful and sad November morning so many years ago. This book was written with sensitivity and respect for all those touched by this unfortunate event in history
