More about the book
The narrative centers on the tragic events of November 29, 1864, when a Denver militia attacked a sleeping village of Cheyenne and Arapaho, seeking revenge for previous conflicts. Colonel John M. Chivington led this brutal assault, claiming to have decimated the tribes, and returned to Denver celebrated as a hero. This violent episode highlights the complex dynamics of American expansion, racial conflict, and the glorification of military leaders, as Chivington's actions garnered public admiration and political aspirations, despite their devastating consequences.
