BATTLE AT BEECHER ISLAND
Forty-nine untrained civilian volunteers, two wounded officers and a dying Army doctor were nailed down on a sand-bar in a shallow river by more than a thousand Cheyenne, Arapahoe and Sioux. For the fourth day the squaws and children shrieked with blood-lust. Roman Nose gathered his warriors for yet another attack. And again the desperate men on Beecher Island leveled their rifles... An epic novel of the blood and courage which won the West for civilization!
