| Publisher Description: The U.S. government told the Nez Perce in 1877 to move to a reservation far from their home, or else. What started out peacefully ended in a desperate attempt to escape U.S. forces. About 800 tribal members ran for their lives, almost reaching safety in Canada. How would it affect their lives and change the United States? |
