Sioux, Cheyenne & Arapahoe Warriors vs. US Army Soldiers : The Battle Of Beecher Island

In 1868, on the remote plains of Eastern Colorado, a specially assembled group of US Army soldiers and civilians follow the trail of what they believe to be 25 Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapahoe warriors. Their job is to engage these native warriors, and put an end to the months of raiding and killing that have ravaged the area. Second in command is a young First Lieutenant named Frederick Henry Beecher. Born to a prominent American family of ardent abolitionists, and a veteran of some of the Civil Wars fiercest battles while fighting for the Union Army, Beecher now finds himself here- a career Army officer- in service to his country and in pursuit an enemy that he does not know. But, as these men will soon learn, the force of native warriors they are pursuing is in fact part of a larger village, hundreds strong. Among them is the legendary Cheyenne warrior Roman Nose, who is well-known throughout the Northern Plains are a fierce and foreboding fighter. Roman Nose, as he is known amongst the Americans, believes he has been protected from harm because of the strong medicine possessed by his legendary warbonnet. But now, that medicine has been compromised when he unwittingly eats a meal prepared with the white man’s metal utensils. Now he must face a battle in which he believes he will surely die. By the end of nearly a week of brutal fighting, each of these men will meet similar ends, and have eerily similar fates. Upon hearing of the battle, General George Armstrong Custer himself would deem it "the greatest battle in the history of the plains".
