The Ute Campaign of 1879 is a study of linkages. Major Russel D. Santala's work not only explores the threads of continuity between engagements and campaigns but also examines the relationship of government policy to one of the instruments of that policy-the Army. Ten years before the events of this study occurred, General William T. Sherman made note of this connection. In a commencement address to the West Point class of 1869, he compared the Army to the steam engine and warned that it is "held together by an organization and discipline demanding great knowledge and labor, moved into action by causes more powerful than steam, and so intimately connected with the whole fabric of government that ignorance and mismanagement would result in a catastrophe more fatal than could result from the explosion of any steam engine."This study chronicles the Army's role in the struggle between two cultures. At the same time, it serves to illuminate the problems of utilizing the military instrument in an environment of transitory national policy and competing national and local interests.

This study examines the role of the U.S. Army as an instrument of national power in the execution of U.S. government policy. The focus of the thesis is an investigation of the implementation of policy, in terms of the Ute Indian tribe of Colorado, and the events preceding and following the Ute uprising of 1879. The Army found itself in a dilemma with regard to its support of a national Indian strategy. It was not the primary executive agent for the implementation of policy but was called upon to both enforce national policy and police violators. This study traces the development of the U.S. Indian Policy and the evolution of army strategy in the west. The study culminates with an analysis of the events surrounding the outbreak of hostilities in 1879. This study addresses issues that faced the U.S. Army in an environment of unclear national policy and competing national and local interests. Reprint of the 1994 Combat Studies Institute monograph.

"Dawson and Skiff, two well known Colorado journalist, have under preparation...a history of the late Ute war...the most salient features of this most exciting episode in the history of our state." -Larimer County Independent, Nov. 20, 1879 "A history of the Ute war including...the massacre at the agency, privations and hardships of captive women...can hardly fail to be interesting." -Lawrence Daily Journal, Nov. 14, 1879 "Gives a history of the White river massacre and the privations and hardships of the captive white women." The Idaho Statesman, May 16, 1920 "The work is of thrilling interest." -Junction City Weekly Union, Dec. 6, 1879 How did a dispute between Indian agent Meeker and Utes who preferred to hunt instead gardening finally erupt into a massacre and the captivity of Josephine Meeker and her mother? How did these women survive a horrifying and lengthy captivity? In 1879, two well-known Colorado newspapermen, Thomas Fulton Dawson (1853-1923) and Frederick James Volney Skiff (1851-1921) would publish a history of the Ute war based on first-hand accounts, under the title "The Ute War: a History of the White River Massacre and the Privations and Hardships of the Captive White Women Among the Hostiles on Grand River." In introducing their work, the authors write: "The one aim of the book is to furnish...an account of the recent uprising of the Utes... from the time of Johnson''s attack upon Agent Meeker, including the Thornburgh fight at Milk River, the agency massacre, the captivity of the women, and other incidents of interest. The authors feel competent to assume this task. They have, as editors of the Tribune, written a complete history of the affair from day to day, and need simply to put in book form what they have heretofore published." Meeker Massacre and the White River War, Ute War, or the Ute Campaign, were conflicts that began when the Utes attacked an Indian agency on September 29, 1879, killing the Indian agent Nathan Meeker and his 10 male employees and took women and children as hostages. US Army forces were called in from Fort Steele in Wyoming. Following the killing of Meeker and others, there was a Ute attack at Milk Creek on U.S. troops led by Major Thomas T. Thornburgh, which killed the major and 13 troops within minutes. Relief troops were called in, which resulted in a further conflict. The conflict resulted in the forced removal of the White River Utes and the Uncompahgre Utes from Colorado,[2] and the reduction in the Southern Utes'' land holdings within Colorado. The war signalled the final defeat of the Utes and opened millions of new acreage to white settlement. About the authors: Thomas Fulton Dawson: was born June 23, 1853 and died June 25, 1923.

Over the course of his military career, George Crook developed empathy and admiration for American Indians both as foes and as allies. As Paul Magid has demonstrated in the previous two volumes of his groundbreaking biography, this experience prepared Crook well for his metamorphosis from Indian fighter to outspoken advocate of Indian rights. An Honest Enemy is the third and final volume of Magid’s account of George Crook’s life and involvement in the Indian wars. Using rarely tapped information, including Crook’s own diaries, the work documents in dramatic detail the general’s arduous and dangerous campaigns against the Chiricahua Apaches and their leader Geronimo, action that forms a backdrop to the transformation in the general’s role vis-à-vis Native Americans. In a story by turns harrowing and tragic, Magid details the plight of Indians who, in the aftermath of their defeat, were consigned to reservations too barren to sustain them, where they were subjected to impoverishment, indifference, and in many cases, outright corruption. With growing anger, Crook watched as many tribes faced death from starvation and disease and, unwilling to passively accept their fate, desperately sought to flee their reservations and return to their homelands. Charged with the grim task of returning the Indians to such conditions, Crook was forced to choose between fulfilling his duties as a soldier and his humanitarian values. Magid describes Crook’s struggle to reconcile these conflicting concerns while promoting policies he regarded as essential to the welfare of the Indians in the face of a hostile public, jealous fellow officers, and an unsympathetic government that regarded his efforts as quixotic and misguided. Here is a tale that readers will not soon forget.
