In the Footsteps of Little Crow

At the Star Tribune, as we approached the 150th anniversary of the U.S.-Dakota War, we decided to try to explain the significance of this awful time with a historical narrative, as told through the story of Little Crow, a Dakota chief who, at times reluctantly, led the 1862 rebellion. This e-book may read like a work of historical fiction, but it is a deeply reported piece of journalism, down to the smallest of details.
