In 1836, Marcus and Narcissa Whitman devout missionaries from upstate New York established a Presbyterian mission on Cayuse Indian land near what is now the fashionable wine capital of Walla Walla Washington. Eleven years later a group of Cayuses killed the Whitmans and eleven others in what became known as the Whitman Massacre. The attack led to a war of retaliation against the Cayuse; the extension of federal control over the present - day states of Washington Oregon Idaho and parts of Montana and Wyoming; and martyrdom for the Whitmans. Today however the Whitmans are more likely to be demonized as colonizers than revered as heroes. Tate tells the Cayuse's side of the story with empathy and clarity a meticulously researched book.
