In 1862 the largest Indian uprising in American history occurred in
southern Minnesota. Enraged Sioux attempted to throw off the broken
treaties that still bound them and to avenge the insults and
depredations they had been forced to bear. Hundreds of whites were
killed. Women were taken captive. Told from the point of view of
Judith Raveling, a young woman widowed by the uprising, Scarlet
Plume draws on the brutal history of the conflict from beginning to
end. Taken captive by the Sioux, Judith is given to Scarlet Plume,
one of the many warriors who know their cause is lost. Caught
between the men who would wage war ruthlessly and his own judgment,
which tells him how dearly the Sioux will pay for every white
person killed, Scarlet Plume tries to save as many as he can.
Defying the dangers of a pitiless war, he returns Judith to the
safety of her people. Soon she must try to save him. Scarlet Plume
is the third of Frederick Manfred's five-volume series, The
Buckskin Man Tales.
