Overview
December 26, 1862. On the day after Christmas, in Mankato, Minnesota, 38 Indians were hanged on the order of President Lincoln. This event stands today as the greatest mass execution in the history of the U.S. Duane Schultz brilliantly retells one of America's most violent & bloody events -- the Great Sioux Uprising of 1862. "An evenhanded distribution of the blame & a fine description of the events in this little-remembered bit of our history." "Skillfully interwoven from personal & local histories & contemporary accounts -- an intimate view of desperation & bloodshed on the Great Plains that's as poignant as it is tragic."
