When U.S. Cavalry troops rode onto the Ute Indian Reservation in northwestern Colorado on September 29, 1879, they triggered a chain of events that cost the Utes their homeland. Robert Silbernagel casts new light on the affair. Using details from historical interview transcripts and newspaper articles, he reveals the personalities of the major characters. The result is a multifaceted picture of what took place and a portrayal that brings the Ute side of the story into focus.
