The great retreat: The Nez Perces war in words and pictures - Softcover

1976 Chronicle Books oversize softcover, Pascal Tchakmakian. "Hear me my chiefs. I am tired; my heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands, I shall fight nor more forever." These famous words by chief Joseph marked the end of one of the most tragic Indian wars on this continent. They were spoken just a century ago and marked the end of an era. Certainly the end of the utopian life of the Nez Perces tribe. The Nez Perces had lived for as long as their recorded history in a beautiful and hospitable land surrounded by majestic mountains, in what are now the states of Idaho, Oregon and Washington. - Amazon
