MASSACRE!, A History
From the author of the "Frontier Justice Trilogy,"
From the secure distance of time it is easy to smugly convince ourselves that we are more discerning, more sensitive…better…than our forefathers.
Maybe they had reasons for some of their beliefs.
The largest massacre in the history of the United States remains relatively unknown, overshadowed by the Civil War. MASSACRE will remedy this oversight.
This 115,000 word book abounds with remarkable characters.
There are killers without mercy, killers whose viciousness is beyond all reason, beyond all imagination.
There is a savior who will not save, a man more worried about his own safety and political image than about the horrendous suffering he alone can prevent.
Most impressive of all are Lavinia Eastlick and Justina Krueger, two women whose struggles and will to survive surpass all understanding; whose memories are dreadful beyond belief.
All of Massacre is true. This did happen, to these people. Every message and newspaper quote is presented as found.
I wish it was fiction, but it is not.
So will you.
