This history of the Nez Perce War was written in 1878-79 by Duncan
McDonald, a relative of Chief Looking Glass and the son of a
Hudson's Bay Company fur trader and a Nez Perce Indian woman.
McDonald spent most of his life on the Flathead Indian Reservation
in western Montana. McDonald wrote the history based on interviews
and family sources. In 1878 he traveled to Canada to interview Nez
Perce chief White Bird and learn his side of the story. Remarkably,
the history was published in a Deer Lodge, Montana, newspaper only
a year or two after the war ended. McDonald's Nez Perce War history
is published with a historical introduction and selection of his
other essays on Indian affairs, in which he objects to the United
States government's unjust treatment of northwest Indian tribes and
condemns the threats of some Montana whites to attack Indians who
were friendly to the settlers.
