Cheyenne Autumn

An American Epic. In quest of their homeland over 1500 miles distant, a band of Northern Cheyennes fled the Oklahoma reservation in September, 1878, on what would be one of the most harrowing and courageous treks in the history of the American West. The 278 Cheyennes, fewer than half of them adults, under the dual chieftancy of Little Wolf and Dull Knife, had been half-starved by their forced encampment. They had little ammunition and few guns and horses. . .
