From Where the Sun Now Stands (Book #112)

From Where the Sun Now Stands (Will Henry, 1959) is a beautiful but heartbreaking novel that through the eyes of a young kinsman of Chief Joseph tells the story of the Nez Perce's attempt to escape to Canada. I wanted to go back in time and fix the world to give them a better ending--the doomed gallantry of the thing had me crying at the end.
