Description

After the defeat of Custer at the Battle of the Little Big Horn, June, 1876; thousands of Lakota Sioux went to Canada to escape the American army. Their leaders included Sitting Bull, Four Horns and the two famous Lakota chiefs with the name "Black Moon". Most returned to American reservations within 5 years; but over 200 stayed in Canada where their decendants live today. This is their story.
