The Official Proceedings at the Council in the Walla Walla Valley and Lawrence Kip's Indian Council in the Walla Walla Valley, along with James Doty's Journal of Operations, are an exlent source of first hand information on the treaty proceedings. Also reprinted are the texts of the three treaties signed at the end of the council, and the text of three more conferences held by the military authorities with several of these tribesman after the battles of 1855 and 1856. These documents provide an insight, however imperfectly translated, into the way the Columbia basin Native Americans viewed what the land they lived on meant to them, and how different their views on land ownership was from the European views of ownership of defined tracts of land.

Throughout the 1850s, Native peoples of the inland Northwest actively resisted white encroachments into their traditional territories. Tensions exploded in 1858 when nearly one thousand Palouses, Spokanes, and Coeur d'Alenes routed an invading force commanded by Colonel Edward Steptoe. In response, Colonel George Wright mounted a large expedition into the heart of the Columbia Plateau to punish and subdue its Native peoples. Opposing Wright's force was a loose confederacy of tribes led by the famous warrior Kamiakin. Indian War in the Pacific Northwest is a vivid and valuable first-person account of that aggressive and bloody military campaign. Related by Lawrence Kip, a young lieutenant serving under Wright, it provides a rare glimpse of military operations and campaign life along the far western frontier before the Civil War. Replete with colorful prose and acute observations, his journal is also notable for its dramatic descriptions of clashes with Kamiakin's men and compelling portraits of leading figures on both sides of the Plateau Indian War. The new introduction provides the historical and cultural background and aftermath of the conflict, explores its effects on present-day Native peoples of the Columbia Plateau, and critically assesses Kip's observations and interpretations. Also included in this Bison Books edition are two Native accounts of the conflict by Kamiakin and Mary Moses.
