In his penetrating new book, Thunder in the Mountains, Daniel J.

This beautifully written book will change the way readers think about the era of Civil War and Reconstruction., Revelatory and riveting, Daniel J. Sharfstein's Thunder in the Mountains places the Nez Perce War within the broader story of the Civil War Era and the postwar shift to empire. In rigorously researched set pieces that capture the nature of life among the Nez Perce, the white settlers of the Wallowa Valley, and Army officers and their families, Sharfstein captures the many causes and consequences of what Yellow Wolf called 'the war we did not want.', Revelatory and riveting, Daniel J. Sharfstein's Thunder in the Mountains places the Nez Perce War within the broader story of the Civil War Era and the postwar shift to empire. In rigorously researched set pieces that capture the nature of life among the Nez Perce, the white settlers of the Wallowa Valley, and Army officers and their families, Sharfstein captures the many causes and consequences of what Yellow Wolf called 'the war we did not want.' By situating the Nez Perce War within the Civil War, Reconstruction, Alaskan expansion, and the Spanish-American War, Sharfstein persuasively argues that the war was a crucible for American state building and a central piece of nineteenth-century American history.

  • Great read on many fronts

    great indepth history of native American conflict and roots of racism in the south after the civil war, lead by southern democrats and the president, that wanted to reverse the Lincoln policies. But a great detailed account of the Nez Peirce war, step by step. Great read is you like history.
