That Day By the Creek : A Novel About the Sand Creek Massacre of 1864
Description:
Set in 1864 Colorado Territory, based on the actual events that led up to the infamous massacre of peaceable Cheyennes and Arapahoes.
At the height of frontier expansion, Joshua Frasier comes West as a missionary to the Cheyenne Indians. He marries into the tribe and then is recruited as chaplain in the Colorado militia to fight on the edges of the Civil War and to deal with the 'Indian problem.' Caught up in the military and political conflicts of frontier Colorado, Joshua's faith and mettle are tested severely.
John Buzzard's well-crafted story weaves both historical and fictional characters into the fast-paced action. He balances a heart-wrenching tragedy of the West with human warmth, hope, and these universal themes: In a clash of cultures, where do ambition, fear, and violence lead? And how is healing even possible?
Bringing this colorful but tragic piece of history to life, the author reminds us not to allow fear, distrust, and anger to escalate to the place where we would ever again experience such a day as That Day by the Creek!
