Description

Book Synopsis
The wrenching tale of Chief Joseph and his followers is now legendary, but Bear's Paw is not the entire story. In fact, nearly three hundred Nez Perces escaped the US Army and fled into Canada. Beyond Bear's Paw is the first book to explore the fate of these “nontreaty” Indians.

Trade Review
With his characteristically thorough scholarship and perceptive insights, Jerome Greene tells the scarcely known, tragic story of the Canadian exiles from the Nez Perce War of 1877. We are much the better for the telling."" - Elliott West, author of The Last Indian War: The Nez Perce Story

""Greene's knowledge and understanding of the Nez Perce flight from Idaho and their pursuit by the U.S. Army in 1877 are undeniable. The story here has long been waiting to be told, and it adds another shade to contemporary understanding of the complexity of Native-white history of the late nineteenth century. - Western Historical Quarterly
