商品描述
In this book, Catherine Nealy Judd demonstrates the profound significance of a U.S military siege rashly launched from Fort Kearny against a small war party of Northern Cheyenne. This event occurred on the Platte River Road in August 1856 and triggered four Cheyenne reprisal counterattacks. Drawing on history, anthropology, geography, cultural studies, military records, governmental archives, diaries, letters, and other primary sources, Judd scrutinizes a tumultuous moment in the pre-railroad expansionist era, presenting her readers with a tale of struggle between Indigenous Americans and an increasingly aggressive federal military stationed at the forts of the Plains. As Judd scrutinizes the causes, conduct, and consequences of this long-neglected series of events, her insights encourage us to reassess the trajectories of federal aggression and of an Indigenous response to that bellicosity. By placing the Cheyenne Nation at the center of the history of the Overland Trail, this study offers a long overdue reinterpretation of the Platte River Road in the 1850s and beyond.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
在這本書中，凱瑟琳·尼利·賈德（Catherine Nealy Judd）展示了美國軍方從基爾尼堡（Fort Kearny）草率發動的圍攻對北切延（Northern Cheyenne）一小支戰鬥隊的深遠意義。這一事件發生在1856年8月的普拉特河公路（Platte River Road），並引發了四次切延的報復反擊。賈德利用歷史、人類學、地理學、文化研究、軍事記錄、政府檔案、日記、信件及其他主要來源，仔細檢視了這一在鐵路擴張前的動盪時刻，向讀者呈現了美洲原住民與日益侵略性的聯邦軍隊之間的鬥爭故事。當賈德深入探討這一長期被忽視的事件系列的原因、過程和後果時，她的見解促使我們重新評估聯邦侵略的軌跡以及原住民對這種好戰行為的反應。通過將切延民族置於橫越大陸小道（Overland Trail）歷史的中心，這項研究提供了對1850年代及以後普拉特河公路的長期被忽視的重新詮釋。
