Massacre: Minnesota Sioux Uprising

Massacre: Minnesota Sioux Uprising outlines the Indian uprising of 1862 and explains how it came about. In less than an hour, you will meet the main participants, understand the various battles at New Ulm, Fort Ridgely, Birch Coulee, and Wood Lake, and learn more about the expulsion of the Native Americans from Minnesota. For those readers who want to know more and understand how contemporary readers learned about the uprising, we included several original accounts published in the St. Cloud Democrat, The Pioneer Press, and the Goodhue Volunteer.

It's not the complete story, but enough to bring you up to speed, understand the issues of the day, and maybe encourage you to explore more on your own.

Each book includes a timeline to help you see the bigger picture so you can watch events unfold.
